So, after fighting with it for hours, finally I got it working so I thought it might help someone. I will got through step by step
1 - Create a new Rails application and set it up so that it loads an empty index page
(Create a controller with an index action + add an index view + edit the routes file accordingly)
2 - Add the following line to the Gemfile - gem 'requirejs-rails'
3 - In application.html.erb file, replace
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %> with <%= requirejs_include_tag "application" %>
4 - Add a requirejs.yml file under config directory and delete all the content of application.js
5 - In the vendor/assets/javascripts directory, add backbone.js, underscore.js and JQuery libraries
6 - Add the code as shown below to the corresponding files
7 - Credit goes to - https://github.com/jwhitley/requirejs-rails
8 - Thanks
