Usage

This library lets you override the sync() method on your collections and models so they're saved to localForage instead of a REST server. Simply override your objects' sync() method with the namespace for your model:

    var MyModel = Backbone.Collection.extend({
        sync: Backbone.localforage.sync('MyModel')
    });
    var MyCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend({
        model: MyModel,
        sync: Backbone.localforage.sync('MyCollection')
    });

Now whenever you save your collections or models, they'll be saved with localForage!
