Leanstack.io is now StackShare

Software is eating software development. And yet, in 2014, it’s still hard to figure out which JavaScript MVC framework you should use to build your new customer-facing web dashboard.
We have services like GitHub to help us grab the framework once we make a decision. Sites like Stack Overflow for when we run into an issue using it. But before we head over to GitHub, before we need Stack Overflow, there’s the all important question of “what should I use?"
And right now, trying to get an answer to that question online is pretty hit-or-miss. Ask Google and you'll see whichever framework has better SEO. Search HackerNews, you'll see lively discussions, likely from when the frameworks first launched. If you're lucky, you have a friend who has used one, maybe two of the frameworks. They’ll likely recommend the one they prefer. You trust your friend so you go with that. And that works great, until you ask your friend about Rails profilers and they look at you with a blank stare.
