I'm looking for good examples to demonstrate business the potentially better experience with an SPA over classic server side produced html pages.
Complex examples would be preferred over simple ones.
Others: Google Maps.
I don't find Gmail to be a particularly good example, unfortunately.
I also know that Apple uses Angular for a few internal (non-public) developer tools/consoles.
Angular is a framework, heavier than the other frameworks too. Twitter and Facebook are particularly good examples because they use both server and client-side rendering, so they get the best of both worlds (fast initial page render and fast subsequent client renders). I love Angular, but Angular can't do this currently.
http://www.nasa.gov/ uses angular as well bit it's a bit media heavy why i consider it only a mediocre example.
With angular you can include server side produced html as well? Or how are React and Flight better regarding that aspect?
backbone + rails
