this is interesting so Javascript can now be used for server-side which removes the need for Ruby on Rails and Django basically? can someone summaries this article, time is of the essence.
We do this sort of thing on the site I work on, Google+. Initial page-loads are rendered on the server, subsequent page-loads are rendered on the client. Really good for performance. It's just the templating system that's common code, though, the server is still Java.
(author) Cool! What's the JavaScript runtime on the server? Something JVM-based?
This is a classic "impedance mismatch" like O/R mapping. At the end of the day, there may be no good, i.e. simple, solution. It is inherently difficult and messy.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

The server code is still Java, but our template language ( https://developers.google.com/closure/templates/ ) compiles to both JS and Java.
Also, you can't patent this now.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Using precisely defined mathematical words in contexts where they only make sense vaguely to a layperson ruins their original usage. Make up a new word. Repurpose a shitty English word. But leave our damn maths words alone. Old man quarterto shakes his fist at you! Get off my smooth, compact lawn!

isomorph(ism) is actually from chemistry, not mathematics.

Before maths, it was probably mostly geologists that used it. It's also used plenty in evolutionary biology, but this was probably after maths (not sure though).

longingly gazes into the distance
I'm having a brain freeze here. How do you render a DOM on the server and then push it out to the client? Convert in memory DOM to a text/html representation before sending?
You could use something like Phantom JS. To iterate a point in the article, a number of client-heavy sites built on Angular and Ember have been rendering their content on the server-side to be presented to crawlers like the Googlebot for SEO purposes.
