My Coding I fleshed out the details of CartCollection, ProductModelModel and CartLineItem yesterday. We now have a basic flow which works form start to results to add to sizes hopup to add to cart. This will allow Bill work on Cart page display and also support PDP. Next: some code cleanup, add Jasmine testing and code walkthrough. dust render calling custom functions I needed a way to highlight a selected element in a html select when iterating over a list of options.
