Mithril is nice. W.r.t. going for batteries included, it's still a bit minimal for my taste. Personally I would lean towards something more dogmatic, in the spirit of Rails. For example, things that I would miss from Ember: ember-data, models (with relations), controllers, opinions, integrated tooling, etc ... But Mithril looks cool I've been meaning to play with it too. You're right that skills gained from learning Mithril will be more widely applicable to general front-end dev than Ember.
- alttab 9y agoHow about rails?
- lopatin 9y agoRails is great, but where it really shines is server side apps, content sites, blogs, CMSs, etc .. If you know you're building purely a SPA, Rails isn't really the right tool for that.
- alttab 9y agoI'd argue that more than half pure SPAs do not need to be SPAs, and can be written effectively in Rails with someone who knows it well, in less time, with less bugs, and more test coverage.
