Component architecture - Where to Start?

[mikebritton]

I'm working out a responsive design template that may be useful for others.  Showing / hiding of things like top nav and bottom nav is done programmatically, side menu, all that.

How would I begin thinking of this as a puremvc plugin?  I've created many jQuery plugins, so I'm familiar with this format, but a puremvc approach would be different.  I'm trolling for best practices, I guess, since a plugin architecture would open some doors.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have some demo stuff working in a repo somewhere that we can review? I'm interested in helping to figure out how that might work as well.

I am working to get Bill White's JS Pipes utility ready for primetime, and I'm wondering if a separate core that has this stuff in it might be a managable approach. You'd send PipeMessages to it and it would... (do things?).

But I'd like to see what sort of code and declarations we're pushing around before making any concrete suggestions.
