Thanks for mentioning Ractive (http://www.ractivejs.org/ http://www.ractivejs.org/), first time I've seen it. I'm wondering why you would prefer angular for a form-centric app? I've used angular and rivets.js + backbone with success, my preference being angular but Ractive looks like a way to get awesome templating and databinding without committing the entire app to a single monolithic framework. It also seems that server side rendering is more reachable with it's mustachy roots.

Ractive creator here - yes, Ractive runs in Node. You create an instance similarly to on the client (ractive = new Ractive({ template: myTemplate, data: myData }) - obviously you don't specify a container element), then use ractive.renderHTML() to get the result.
