$ yo backbone-amd:collection collection-name
You can link the collection with an existent model

Create views
Backbone works with view definitions, to create one use this command
$ yo backbone-amd:view view-name

$ yo backbone-amd:view view-name --coffee
Create routers
You can generate routers too with
$ yo backbone-amd:router router-name
Or with coffee option
$ yo backbone-amd:router router-name --coffee
Testing
Default test framework for this generator is buster.js but you cant specify another like mocha
$ yo backbone-amd --test-framework=mocha
But if you work with buster you have to do a couple of things first. Due buster framework issues you have to install node 0.9.9, at this time don't work with node 0.10.0 and ensure to install globally buster and plantomjs:
$ npm install -g buster phantomjs
