Does backbone-relational need a backend?

Question

Experimenting with backbone-relational; I'm using Indexeddb to store all my data, is it possible to use backbone-relational without a backend and just let it talk to Indexeddb?

Thanks in advance, James

Here is link to a similar question.

TL/DR: If you don't need to retrieve or store data on the server side there is no need for backend logic development.

1. Backend is not required.
2. Backbone can fully work without any backend if your application doesn't require one.
3. That depends on your application. If you want to retrieve value of some inputs and calculate a result then Backbone won't do that for you - it will help you structure your code. If you app is simple and don't need support for models, views and collections or routing, then there is no point in using Backbone. Hard to answer this question.
