SocketStream is a nice framework (also in early stages) that embraces npm and other node conventions. It doesn't support reactive programming out of the box, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone decides to build a module for it.
Hi simplify. I'll be releasing an new version of SocketStream this Sunday which allows developers to do just that.
The new Request Responder API will allow developers to experiment with many different approaches to models, model synching (e.g. with Backbone.js and Ember.js) and reactive templating.
Rather than put opinionated choices about models and clients-side frameworks into the core, we'll ensure the best third-party modules are fully documented and supported before featuring them on our website.
