JavaScript skeleton(starter, example) using Express and Chaplin

Build Status Coverage Status Dependency Status Stories in Ready Gittip Total views Built with Grunt Bitdeli Badge

If you want to start a project in pure JavaScript it is one of the options of project structure. I was faced with this problem, considered a lot of projects and collect this one.
The project structure is divided into two parts, the frontend and backend. This two parts are very similar in structure using MVC. The app works on the principle of building ui based on data from the backend as JSON.
Also in this project you can find a few examples (authorization using passport, test coverage on frontend, etc.)
And of course Demo (email@email.com:password) if white screen "Refresh page"
