Goals

Primary goals

• Easy setup of isomorphic application based on mithril
• Skeleton / scaffold / Boilerplate to allow users to very quickly get up and running.
• minimal core
• easy extendible
• DB agnostic (e. G. plugins for different ORM/ODM)

Components

• Routing
• View rendering
• i18n/l10n
• Rest-API (could use restify: http://mcavage.me/node-restify/)
• optional Websockets (could use restify: http://mcavage.me/node-restify/)
• easy testing (headless and Browser-Tests)
• login/session handling
• models with validation

Useful libs

Here are some libraries we are considering using, (in no particular order):

• leveldb
• mithril-query
• translate.js
• i18next

And some that we're already using:

• express
• browserify
• mocha/expect
• mithril-node-render
• mithril-sugartags
• mithril-bindings
• mithril-animate
• lodash
• validator
