#2hmm, new? no,good for rest rad yes.
But we still need a nodejs framework for good old html apps with a strong view layer (e.g. forms...).It definetly doesnt exist in nodejs space.

#3This looks pretty cool! I'll be sure to give it a try. It's a shame that there's no support for Ember though.

This is obviously geared more toward SPAs which act on APIs.

#5This framework feels kind of like Rails for REST APIs, but not in a bad way. I really like it so far.

Seen sails.js? How's it different from what you're looking for?

#8Nitpick, but the "GET /people/{id}/exists" in the example to check if the instance exists is a bit weird, would suggest "HEAD /people/{id}" for this type of operation.

#9Wow, I'm building something a bit similar in the Go area: https://github.com/sergiotapia/paprika
Nice to know it's a good idea that a lot of people will find useful. :) Granted in it's current vision Paprika won't handle authentication.
It's basically an API server in-a-can. Defined your structs, set up your .toml database configuration and paprika.Start("3000") on a port.

Since LoopBack exposes a REST-like API, you should be able to use Ember modules in your client:
