It seems like Backbone is dominant, but after a couple months of using AngularJS on an everyday basis I'm ready to switch and never look back. Hands-down best framework I've ever worked with. The pleasure I get from it reminds me of the early days of Rails, when the leap in productivity was palpable.

Another framework i barely hear about and surprised me a bit recently is sencha/ExtJS. They're growing a lot in the enterprise sector, but they managed to keep pretty up-to-date relative to web/open sources projects such as angular.Eg they added two-way data binding in their latest version in a not-to-ugly way. Anyone here got a real try on sencha (the full package, including sencha architect) recently ?
It got enterprise traction because they were early to the game and promised MVC. They were pretty good for a while, but the other frameworks have passed them by.

That being said, there's many times where I work with Backbone and I feel like its missing pieces it should have. I don't have too much experience with Angular but it seems to be a much more complete choice.
