Let me recommend Yeoman plus Angular. Yeoman is that extra step above and beyond basic Grunt. Integrates Bower so your common components stay separate, then builds out your stylesheets and JS like they should be for deployment. It's a nice way to develop client-side apps. Then give Angular a shot. I'm not a JavaScript superstar, but it was pretty easy to pick up Angular and run with it. I love how they've organized directives and services. Really lends itself to building reusable components for your apps. Just wish the docs, particularly around testing, were a bit better.
