We implemented them ourselves, and it took quite a bit of work. Our magic weapon is Erlang, which is a wonderful language for working with protocols, and a wonderful runtime for working with many things happening at the same time. The other magic weapons are the Cowboy webserver and the Gun http client -- both written by Loïc Hoguin. Loïc doesn't work for us, but we've been sponsoring him financially for over two years (https://medium.com/@abs/what-we-learned-from-sponsoring-an-open-source-developer-for-a-year-4438568a1cfd#.xnljstik2 https://medium.com/@abs/what-we-learned-from-sponsoring-an-o...). Our frontend doesn't really matter as much, since it's just a dashboard, but we use TypeScript with Flux and React (it's been great).

Care to share your webpack config for getting React and TypeScript to play ball? I'm collecting a bunch to try to figure out what works best.

  That's actually interesting topic :) Right now we use gulp and gulp-typescript. So far, I like approach that is used in https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScriptSamples/tree/master/es6-babel-react-flux-karma https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScriptSamples/tree/master/e... but I'm not sure if we are going to use it any time soon. As far as gulp config, what we use is pretty much close to gulp-typescript README examples

    Thanks! Yeah it's hard to find good UP TO DATE reading material on this. I genuinely appreciate this.

I was just considering advocating within my employer (Cloudant, i.e. clustered-CouchDB-as-a-Service) to back Loïc too. CouchDB is still stuck in the past with Mochiweb, and while switching that out for Cowboy 1.X would be a nice-to-have, getting our hands on a stable release of Cowboy2 (i.e. "the HTTP/2 version") would let us optimize Couch's replication story immensely. I've just been trying to set up a single trivial Event Stream HTTP/2 loop_handler with the Cowboy2 master, and it's really just not there yet, so we could probably give him a push.

  That would be great - I can put you in touch if you're not already (andrei@sameroom.io).
