Okay, I'm with you - but I meant for, like, people who have some idea of what they're doing (and don't just impulsively reach for a massive framework to deal with routine content dispatch).

What do you suggest for manageable SPA-like development -- for those of us who have actually thought the matter through and have decided that's what we need (at least in certain corners of this otherwise lean and mean, mostly static / old-school website we're building)?

I'm not familiar enough with the current space.

But my preference would be something like: plain old server side rendered HTML with JS that enhances the site, adds some dynamicity etc. But in which a link or button-click usually is just fetching a new page over the wire.

This JS can (also) fetch data over the wire, websockets or such. And I wouldn't even expect it to be some fancy "progressive enhancement" - fine if the web-app doens't work without JS for me.
