> Sails.js is probably the closest thing to sane in the JS web framework ecosystem

Whoa, that's where you lost me. Sails has a reputation for being horrible, and after working on a production app using Sails, I agree. Perhaps you were wanting something like Rails but in JS, which is what Sails claims to be, but it barely lives up to that. I don't know if there are other frameworks that try to be the Rails of JS but it wouldn't be hard to better than Sails. I'm interested in hearing why you think it's so sane (no snark, I'm sincerely curious)



I'm going to retract my statement about Sails. I had a lot of trouble with it when I went to use it, but I thought it was just me. It seems it really is crappy as well.


Why’s that?
