Simple, but fully-featured, Backbone example application?

I'm getting started with Backbone, and I'm hunting for an example application with no clutter but with all the key Backbone features: Routes, Models, Collections, Views and Events.

Ideally the application would have a workflow something like this:

Minimal and simple, but just showing how to use all the key elements, including Routes (which often seem to be omitted in examples, including the official example).

Basically I'd like something like the sample code in this blog post, but (a) bulletproof and (b) with the HTML as well, so that I can copy, paste and start playing with it straight away.

Does anyone know of such an example?

I found this tutorial hugely useful while building my own single page App using Backbone.js... http://coenraets.org/blog/2011/12/backbone-js-wine-cellar-tutorial-part-1-getting-started/

There are additional parts that will get you started with CRUD features and fine-tuning etc.

Might be https://github.com/addyosmani/backbone-fundamentals (different example applications in "practicals" directory) is your required.

I am also new to backbone. But thanks to Addy Osmani (http://addyosmani.github.com/backbone-fundamentals), I got concepts and working code to understand backbone.

While it's not a blog, my Backbone Store has all of the items you request, in a didactic, literate programming tutorial. As an added bonus, there's also a Coffeescript/HAML/Stylus version on the same website.
