Question
I found a great tutorial on creating an MVC App from Scratch using Sencha Touch V1.1 but unfortunately it isn't all that applicable to Sencha Touch V2. I want to learn the new/right way to build an MVC app moving forward with their latest framework.
Any good tutorial for building an MVC App using Sencha Touch V2?
Here's a list of places I've already looked.
- Official Docs
- Videos are outdated
- Examples don't show
source
snippets, you have to "View Source" and try to wade through the compressed/minified versions of the library. - Documentation doesn't describe MVC at all (just try searching for "mvc" in their search field... you'll come up empty handed)
- Google Advanced Search
- I tried narrowing down the results by looking for "Sencha Touch" "mvc" where the articles were posted in the last week.
- And of course sencha-touch-2 right here on StackOverflow.
- looks like as of this post, I'm the only person posting with that tag
Solution
I have a complete starter-project for Touch 2 using the MVC pattern on github here:

You can read my blog post about it here:

Hope this helps you get started, -fs
OTHER TIPS
I found this link and site very useful - http://miamicoder.com/category/tutorials/sencha-touch-tutorials/
Updated for V2 as well - http://miamicoder.com/2012/how-to-create-a-sencha-touch-2-app-part-1/
I was also looking for such kind of a tutorial and I found this example to be very helpful for kickstarting my own senchatouch 2.0 app: https://github.com/kawanoshinobu/SenchaTouch2-simple-CRUD-sample
It's in python and the author uses google app engine to run it, but it's pretty self-explanatory how you can run a copy locally using any other backend :) Hope this helps
All Sencha products (Sencha Touch, Ext JS) are expected to follow the new MVC architecture. You should start with understand it. Here is my resource list:
- MVC Application Architecture
- Getting Started with Touch
- Class System, Components etc..
- Examples.. but I don't think there are MVC examples for now...
Start with http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/guide/getting_started and examples/getting_started folder of the Sencha Touch 2.0 SDK download
