I'm fairly new to Sproutcore, but I am familiar with Handlebars. I have walked through the Todo tutorial and checked out a few other samples as well.
I love everything about it and would like to use it over Backbone, but I am having a hard time understanding how to wire up custom controls. I can see where some of the data will play into the bindings, but triggering events I get lost in.
As an example, if I had a link list that I would like to use to filter data below it, how to do I tie into the events? I know in backbone you would use the event and selector: "click .link"
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here's are list of demo apps.

Here's a plug for my own open source demo app that I entered - chililog. I'm blogging about how I've used sproutcore at the blog.chililog.org.
Hope this helps.
