The Mens Stack

Lightweight, Lowly Opinionated, Isomorphic Javascript Framework for Rapid Prototyping Functional Web Apps

Mithril.js
Express
Node.js
Socket.io

Mens is meant to be a complete toolkit for quickly building fast isomorphic web applications, such that there is little to no differentiation between coding on the frontend and the backend.

Usage

var mens = require("mens"), path = require("path");

var server = mens({
   logLevel: 3,
   port: 80,
   components: process.cwd()+path.sep+'components',
   routes: process.cwd()+path.sep+'serverRoutes.js',
});

Route Files

module.exports = {
'/': m.components.index,
'/about/': m.components.about
}
