New to front end development here. Discovered Yeoman, seems like a great tool. I worked through a tutorial and then completed a small project using Angular JS with a Node JS backend. To assist in looking at things from my perspective: at this point I don't know enough web development to abstract my approach, I just know the set of tools I can use to get something working. I know if I want to make a new web site I can generate a project using Yeoman, fiddle with the HTML/CSS, and make the content dynamic with Angular. It actually works pretty well.
However, I am curious as to what the other approaches to web development are. What are the alternatives to Angular JS? Is Angular.js the standard/common approach?
There are tons of Javascript frameworks out there. AngularJS is quite popular, but by no means the standard or common practice. Other popular frameworks you may want to look into are Meteor for full stack apps, ReactJS, Backbone, Ember, and many many more for front-end Javascript frameworks. Also, taking a step back, there are tons of other approaches to web development other than just considering what's on the front end (HTML, CSS and JS). For example, you can build whole websites without even touching javascript using Ruby on Rails. Other big frameworks are Python's Django, PHP with Drupal, Wordpress, Joomla, etc., and .NET / C# just to mention a few. Hope that gets your research started.

can somebody suggest real world tutorials / example on react.js vue.js applications. The ones I find on youtube are too basic and lack logic. A real-world application consists of an admin dashboard and frontend. The tutorials you find on youtube are just basic crud applications.
is it just me or the kind of tutorials you find youtube are too basic and they lack logic ? because of this I find it really hard to learn and master new technologies. I struggled to learn and master web development even, coz there was too much basic tutorials out there but none of them were based on real world applications. It took me some time, and combining information from different sources to be able to build real world applications in php and be job ready.
Like when you work as a web developer you won't be building crud applications. You'll be building real applications with admin backend and frontend with business logic. I'm not roasting what programming channels do though. I think they they are doing a wonderful job and they still help us in a way. But I feel like there're few tutorials online that are based on real world projects. I'd like to hear somebody's opinion on this.
I'm even thinking of starting my own youtube channel that will strictly be based on real world applications like e-commerce stores, Item ordering sites, classifieds sites, property listing sites etc
The React website has a few good examples listed, the University of Helsinki also released a pretty solid introduction to web development website.
However, with those two basic examples listed, that's exactly what they are: basic. They're very simple examples to get people started with React (there are a ton of equivalents for Vue as well) and React alone. I think the issue you may be facing here is that the scope of the projects you're looking to see is a bit out of scale for what a basic React or Vue tutorial would have. This could even just be a problem with the specific wording that you're using, as there are a ton of great full stack projects utilizing React or Vue that you can find online. Examples of that may include looking through resources like Awesome Open Source's full stack open source projects list or some projects like Free Code Camp's full stack blog may be up your alley if you're looking for something to take you through piece by piece.

The title may be misleading many, so let me rephrase. What is the best framework or language that is used for displaying real-time data, that requires a lot of UI/backend rendering?
Recently I was using mean stack with angular2 for a project and it was very cumbersome for always using two-way data-binding or using event emitters to watch any change.
Is there any language/framework that just renders UI based on what has been changed in backend or frontend?
Would reactjs or metoeorjs do the job?
Please enlighten me.
Thanks
I'm unsure of what would have changed with Angular2 but Angular JS was developed to among other things, make something like that easy.
Since Angular 2 has added much more and streamlined how things are done I'm going to say you don't have a good grasp on what the capabilities are because that should be able to handle that. If not, then Angular JS(1) can for sure.
A lot of people are straying away from Angular due to the huge changes in 2 in my experience.
Personally, I use react to do this. If you set up web sockets, or use Firebase all you do is handle the event triggers. When they do, react uses immutability to see what part of objects have changed and renders/updates elements accordingly.

I have an idea for a game and I will try to create it.
It is a simple multiplayer game that runs in a browser.
I was recommended to use React.js and Firebase.
So I paid 60 dollars for a video tutorial that built an app using these technologies, perfect! Unfortunately, it uses the JSX transformer that was deprecated, and now I have learned that I should use something called Babel instead.
What I wonder is if you can recommend me some tutorial that teach me React with Babel from scratch. I googled a lot but I could not find anything directed at noobs
If you take a look at the react site tutorial (http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/tutorial.html) they show a post JSX transformer method using babel. You should also look at some of the starter packages to see what style of organizing and building react works best for you. Here are a couple;

This isn't a forum for this sort of question and the question might get flagged as off-topic, but for what it's worth, since learning this stuff is hard for beginners, I suggest going to the redux library github page and watching the 30 free tutorial videos, then downloading the examples and using their 'webpack' configuration. The examples come with the pre-installed set of tools for transpiling JSX using Babel. You could look at the "counter" example since it doesn't have much redux at all (though I suggest using it anyways).
Otherwise you could be using gulp and browserify to babelify your code but again, the question is broad and should be more of a forum post so that a thread could be started for discussion.

Are there any good documentation for backbone.js? I am trying to learn it, however reading the official page is not convenient for me because it is not structured well.
For example reading about Models has some explanation considering the Collections, which are described later. So if there is a well structured documentation which describe everything in a convenient for understanding order, please suggest it.
I can tell you what are the resources that I used to get a grasp of Backbone (I am a backend developer turned frontend for necessity on a personal project).
This website has nice examples, from basic to advanced, and was pretty easy for me to follow them. Also these videos are exceptional and proved to be useful for me. Needless to say I am not affiliated to the owners of these resources, I am only bringing my own experience.
Having said that, my current resources for Backbone, now that I "got" it (and delivered a non-trivial project based on it) are the official website and the source code. It is true that the website is non-linear but that will not be a problem when you have digested all its pieces (you will find yourself go there just for a reference). Another story are the little caveats and details that are not written anywhere (official or unofficial docs). For that you need the source code that is well documented. Backbone, at least for me, had a steep learning curve. All the concepts are known if you did development before, but getting them right with Backbone and JS has been another story. The single most important resource to learn it has been starting to play with it! Seriously, you start with a small UI and try to play with events and collections (I used Chrome dev tools directly, no need to set up a real project). Then you grow organically from there.
But I agree that you kinda have to go and look for informations on multiple places...

I'm working on GAE-J/GWT app, wherein a desktop app connects to the GAE-J component, and there is also a web-app component whose front-end is written in GWT, and the GAE-J backend supports both the desktop app and the web app.
I have a good amount of experience with writing pure server code and desktop code, but not so much on the web-app side of things. So I'm looking to study some good sophisticated open source code to see how other's have done things, but I can't find much open source GWT and/or GAE-J stuff, other than frameworks. Does anyone know of any good projects out there?
I've written a little app called SixFixMix that uses the following stack: GWT, GIN, dyuproject (for OpenID), gwt-mobile-webkit (for HTML5 Geolocation), gwt-google-apis (for Maps), gwt-log, gwt-presenter, gwt-dispatch, Objectify, and GAEJ. Good luck!
There isn't any GWT in it (yet?) but Partychat (Google Code Project) is a moderately-sophisticated open-source Java App Engine app that simulates multi-user chatrooms using the XMPP service.
I'm sure there are more sophisticated apps out there, and some that include a GWT component, but I figured I'd take the chance to self-promote when it's given :)
GWT tagged open-source projects on google code hosting.
maybe that can help you http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/articles/mvp-architecture.html
