App: microCMS
MEAN stack based CMS designed specifically for developers. microCMS allows a developer to build a fast, poweful website without the limits of a conventional CMS, no longer needing to worry with the "one size fits all" solutions, each site can be tailored specifically to a projeject while still allowing the client to be able to safely edit the sites content without running the risk of them breaking the site in the process.
Back-end is built with node and express using the Swig tempalting engine. The UI is built using Bootstrap and will be allowing users to easily add/change content and upload basic files to de displayed on teh site.
Front-end is built using Angular.JS but is not directly connected to the backend. This is compltely intentional to allow the developers to create the public facing site in whichever language they are most familiar with if they do not wish to use Angular, all you need to be able to do is fire off API calls to the defined end-point and strucutre the data as you choose.
The premise behind this is that only the content and other key sections of the are editable by the end-user/client to keep the structure and other essential elements safe from accidental harm or PBKAC's. :D
