Asking 10 people to explain what MVC is, and you'll get 11 answers ;) ! Having recently done a dive into this area, I would really recommend interested folks to patiently read this great article by Martin Fowler: http://martinfowler.com/eaaDev/uiArchs.html

The web community has been done a great disservice by people popularising the phrase "MV*".

For a UI framework, show me a pretty demo with some example snippet code next to it and I will read on. Otherwise, I'm not motivated -- this is not the way you want people to read about your UI framework.

This. I can't find a single example of an actual UI you'd build with famo.us on their entire site. How am I supposed to know what makes the framework worth learning if I don't see examples of what it makes possible?

For what it's worth, I quite enjoyed when re-frame did this.

It looks like Famous is going for something similar, but I'm not enjoying the reading nearly as much.
