This is a throwback to thick client-server computing. Welcome to 1992 everybody! I'm not a web dev, but I like the client side rendering. (Even if I hate JS with a passion). This is a fantastic move as it lets you very clearly seperate presentation from business logic and the database. Also, the rendering HTML/JS can be easily cached. So you get a normal page load the first time you try the app, every time after that you get _instant_ results. Nice.
