Echo JS 0.11.0

Decent rant in terms of where the divide between a website and a web application are... it's a bit muddled.

Personally, I build web based applications... some of them have been public facing, many have been internal.  Some have been training simulations.  In the end, what this has been comes down to what you're trying to do.

If you are dealing with mostly static content, I would favor using markdown docs and templates.  For interactivity, I would suggest loading JS as a module and use the browser support.

If you are building an application, I reach for React + @material-ui/core + redux + parcel ... It's a combination of tools that makes it easier to build applications.  Not everything needs to be a web application.
