Most developers nowadays are having a lot of success building web 
apps with an AngularJS MVC & Vibe.d, rather than rendering the 
page entirely from the back-end. Heck, they can even build 
android or ios native apps with this architecture (see Ionic 
framework). So I think this makes more sense than rendering pages 
in the back-end, even if most legacy web stuff did that.
