title: Ember.js or Backbone.js for Restful backend
body: <p>I already know that ember.js is a more heavy weight approach in contrast to backbone.js. I read a lot of articles about both.</p>
  
  <p>I am asking myself, which framework works easier as frontend for a rails rest backend. For backbone.js I saw different approaches to call a rest backend. For ember it seems that I have to include some more libraries like 'data' or 'resources'. Why are there two libraries for this? </p>
  
  <p>So whats the better choice? There arent a lot of examples to connect the frontend with the backend too. Whats a good working example for a backend rest call to this:</p>
  
  <p>URI: ../restapi/topics
  GET
  auth credentials: admin/secrect
  format: json</p>
