Flatiron


Flatiron is yet another Node.js MVC web application framework. What sets Flatiron apart from other frameworks is its package-based approach. Since it gives the power and freedom to decide how much or how little the framework should include, developers can pick and choose the packages they want to work with and include with their project. It handles a lot of the basic data management responsibilities and CRUD for you by supplying a powerful ODM that takes care of a lot of the heavy lifting.
