title: Reusing backbone views/routes on the server when using Backbone.js pushstate for seo/bookmarking
body: <p>I'm doing some due diligence on backbone for a single page app and wonder if it is possible to re-use the same views/routes from the client on the server side, so that when google visits a pushstate URL, or it is accessed directly, the server can generate the exact same HTML that would be generated by backbone in the client. </p>
  
  <p>It would be a pain to have to maintain two separate sets of views/routes, one on the client and one on the server. I have seen the backnode project on github however this seems to miss the point a bit and you end up having to write the same backbone router twice.</p>
  
  <p>Just wondering how people are generally handling the case when using pushstate urls in backbone and needing to serve the same view from the server? Are people duplicating code or is there a better way? </p>
