I share Massimo opinion about ractive.js: simple and effective. The author goal is not having a bloat of features, but rather having a foundation that helps developers, with few clear, but powerful enough concepts, translated in a small framework.
Besides personal preferences, it's clear to me, that the problem here is not web2py including or not a specific client side tool. Great confusion arises and consequently many different approaches, frameworks, tools and so on. IMHO thas is because of client side (browser) approach to UX: js + html could be not the best way to create a UX. Most if not all of the js frameworks around today, are a response to that problem. My POV is that web2py should have a rather agnostic attitude toward a wide range of frameworks, by having some kind of layer that would allow to keep server side code mostly untouched when changing js framework, easily add support for a new js framework. In practice web2py should use a well defined protocol between client and server, to pass actions, messages and events back and forth. In any case, following the "battery included" paradigm of web2py, we must choose a default js framework to start with. 2014-06-20 20:13 GMT+02:00 Phyo Arkar <phyo.arkarl...@gmail.com>: > For UI i recommend Qooxdoo. > > Qooxdoo make us no need to write HTML and CSS , for 3 years already .
