Kudos for effort, but for the life of me I cannot understand why the hell is "load empty shell of a page and then asynchronously fetch bits and pieces of content, ruining the UI along the way" is so prevalent these days.
And, how to make it is available here:<p>Building a QA web service in an hour - MEAN stack development(3)<p><a href="http://engineering.paiza.io/entry/2016/03/10/115345" rel="nofollow">http://engineering.paiza.io/entry/2016/03/10/115345</a>
The article is missing what I think is one of the most important parts, and that's the reasoning behind using a MEAN stack instead of a more classic approach using a standard back-end language like Ruby, Perl or Python, because I honestly fail to see how this is easier than using a framework like Django or RoR.
Askbot (<a href="https://askbot.com" rel="nofollow">https://askbot.com</a>) is also open source and you can create you QA forum "in a minute" (sic).<p>No seriously, the askbot guys have been for a long time on the field, great app.
StackOverflow has already often served me but sometimes I think what we really need would be some place where some people fluent in languages/frameworks could showcase best practices/mini howtos giving a little bit more context.
I've been procrastinating a long time to write an article similar to this. I've been using the generator since v1.x.x. Nice write up!<p>I even wrote a rails console-like equivalent for the older version[1]. Didn't get time to write a new one though. Will be a good addition to the generator I think.<p>[1]: <a href="https://gist.github.com/manu29d/ced4a558abf2fa654bff" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/manu29d/ced4a558abf2fa654bff</a>
Technical improvements were only one part of what made SO great. If you want to compete with them, then you have to figure out how to prevent posts like this one from lasting more than 5 seconds on the site:<p><a href="http://paizaqa.herokuapp.com/questions/show/56e1a5872c8dfa03007cc6d7" rel="nofollow">http://paizaqa.herokuapp.com/questions/show/56e1a5872c8dfa03...</a>

What's the real issue is:<p><navbar></navbar><p>Do you even know that this is invalid and the proper tag is called just <nav>? Do you know that <title> must not be empty in the initial page? Do you know that custom attributes must start with data- (not ng- or ui-)?<p>Did you even check your page with <a href="http://validator.w3.org" rel="nofollow">http://validator.w3.org</a>?
