Single Page Application with Minimal Framework Web Application Template
Professionally I have built web app on almost all major front end networks like Angular and backbone. What I found was these frameworks were quite bloated and quite large for what they offered. For the most part, web development is pretty easy and should stay simplistic and easy.
I decided to experiment with constructing my own simplified single page application framework. As a joke I call it minimal as I wanted to create the smallest footprint javascript file I could to support a dynamic single page web application.
This project contains all of my starter code for a Node.JS express application that uses my minimal spa framework. You can basically download this set of starter files and bring up a spa app in no time and along the way actually understand all the code that drives your application, unlike what you typically find when using much larger frameworks.
A real working spa application that uses this framework is hosted at https://store.leoparddata.com.
