Node.js for a backbone.js application?

I will be making an javascript application using either backbonejs or canjs for the frontend and need a server-side language to connect to the database. Would node.js work fine for this?

I cant find any docs on someone trying to use node.js as the backend...

really not trying to use php, rails, asp, etc...

Examples/explanations would be great! Thanks!

You could definitely use node.js for this

Check out express.js for a simple API to deal with your requests. They have some great docs.
