As much as I don't really enjoy working in Javascript, I think this type of thing may be the future of the presentation layer of web applications. The alternative is better browser support for alternative runtimes to JS, but that seems at lot less likely. But the ability to use the same front-end code client-side and server-side is a huge selling point, particularly to the extent that the boundary can be abstracted, so that application aspects can be declaratively deployed. I love my Django for data layer and business logic, but I'm far less married to it for presentation. I'm very intrigued.
