Today's Web is not a simple page - it's fully-featured interface.

A lot of solutions still "stuck" in old-way interface generation and manipulation - when you first build it with html and then manipulating elements.

What is the best solution if i want to develop "thick" client with minimum amout of pure html code? So all interface will be dynamic, generated and manipulated as objects with methods/events.

I've read about AngularJS and ExtJS, but it still seems not a "perfect" solution to me. Maybe i'm wrong.

  • Angular still works as a html template engine, just on client-side. ExtJS can be my solution, but i'm still researching. And ExtJS is really expensive. Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 7:36

  • Questions too broad needs mark as broad Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 7:43
  • you need good html to have a good interface, for best user results, don't let that part get auto-generated. Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 9:13

It seems like what you're describing is similar to what React.js / Flux are trying to accomplish. Perhaps add them to your list of frameworks to evaluate.
