There are around 20 attributes available for updating in my model through an HTML form. Upon clicking "Submit", I determine which fields have changed, serialize only those into a data variable, and then execute model.save(data). If the operation is successful, our API responds with {"status":"success"}. This approach has been effective so far, but it raises a question:
Does Backbone require the full JSON response from the API for that specific model, or is a simple status message sufficient? If the latter is true, what is the best way to ensure that the view remains in sync with the database?
