!Crossroads - JavaScript Routes
Crossroads.js is a routing library inspired by URL Route/Dispatch utilities present on frameworks like Rails, Pyramid, Django, CakePHP, CodeIgniter, etc...
It parses a string input and decides which action should be executed by matching the string against multiple patterns.
If used properly it can reduce code complexity by decoupling objects and also by abstracting navigation paths.
See project page for documentation and more details.

This project uses Node.js for the build process. If for some reason you need to build a custom version install Node.js and run:
node build
This will delete all JS files inside the dist folder, merge/update/compress source files and copy the output to the dist folder.
IMPORTANT: dist folder always contain the latest version, regular users should not need to run build task.
Open dev/tests/spec_runner-dist.html on your browser.
spec_runner-dist tests dist/crossroads.js and spec_runner-dev tests files insidedev/src - they all run the same specs.
Install npm and run:
``
npm install --dev
npm test
Each time you run npm test the files inside the dist folder will be updatednode build
(it executes as a pretest` script).
