Like you, I'm more a back-end developer and attempted to pick Backbone initially for my SaaS, but I wasn't very successful with it.

Later I discovered Knockout and in 2 hours, I was up and running, and it never got in the way so far.

I can only encourage people to at least try the tutorials, it will be time well spent:
