Re: Which JavaScript framework would you recommend for IBM i?

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been using express.js . I have built a few apps (two static and 
one CRUD) using it so far and it seems pretty straight forward.

I have decided that frameworks are like women: All of them are 
attractive in their own way, but once you get to know ONE, they all pale 
in comparison.....
