The Most Desirable JavaScript Frameworks of 2015
- jonaldomo 11y agoWhich of these is not like the other?
- itschaffey 11y agoHi Jonaldomo - could you clarify what you mean?
- HigginsNinja 11y agoHe is saying that Node is not a JavaScript framework. It is technically a back end scripting language. So maybe you would do well with a better umbrella term like skills or tools.
- itschaffey 11y agoNoted – use of terminology could've been more accurate, but for the purpose of this article we tried to keep it quite simplified. Perhaps the wrong approach with regards to accuracy. What were your thoughts on the broader points of the post?
- HigginsNinja 11y agoI agree with it in terms of generally desired skill sets. Angular rose to prominence very quickly and Node has had a very steady grassroots climb. Backbone has been on the decline for a while now. I don't think React has the klout to really become a commonplace skill. We will see what happens with Angular after 2.0 though.
- itschaffey 11y agoWhat do you think will happen with Angular after 2.0?
- HigginsNinja 11y agoEither demand will explode again, or there won't be much new adoption outside of proof of concept projects. They basically will be losing much of the continuity other frameworks have. I personally/professionally will consider using CanJs and EmberJs from now on.
- bmir-alum-007 11y agoMaybe the platform runtime one, but I could be wrong. ;)
- k__ 11y agoAlso, is React a framework?
- itschaffey 11y agoWhat would you say is the best way to describe React?
- k__ 11y agoHard to say. "A JavaScript library for building user interfaces" is what React calls itself.
- itschaffey 11y agoNode haha? Dang. As mentioned in an answer to another comment, perhaps framework was the wrong terminology to use, and something more all-encompassing to reflect what is wanted would've been better. What do you think a developer using Javascript should use/know right now?
