## What it is
Node Cellar is a sample CRUD web application for browsing, adding, updating, and deleting wine records, built with Backbone.js, Twitter Bootstrap, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB. It serves as a reference/demo project for learning this classic JavaScript stack, with deployment instructions for Heroku.

## Use cases
- learn how to build a CRUD app with Backbone.js and Express
- example of connecting Node.js to MongoDB
- sample full-stack JavaScript application to study
- reference for deploying a Node.js app to Heroku
- starter code for a Backbone.js single-page app with REST backend

## When to choose
- you are learning Backbone.js, Express, or MongoDB and want a small complete example
- you need a reference implementation of a REST-backed CRUD SPA
- you want to see how to deploy a Node/Mongo app to Heroku

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained production-ready application or up-to-date framework versions
- you want a modern frontend stack (React, Vue, etc.)
- you need a project with an explicit license for reuse in your own code
