I still need to do the proper js porting for the ApptemplateAdvanced javascript code ;) I've factored out the useful stuff and included it into the appframework, the documentation is already up to date but the template isnt. So please wait a bit longer or read the docs ;)

TL;DR Concentrate on jQuery & AngularJS

And specific to ownCloud, I would be very careful about these things
at this premature stage, because the design of ownCloud is still very
much in the works. Not many apps have fully transitioned to what I’d
say is the design direction we’re going for (namely it’s only News and
Notes for now, and even they are not completely finished and working).
We still have lots of JS and CSS we don’t actually use or are looking
into abolishing. We need to transition all apps to »the new style«. We
still need to simplify a lot.
I don't want to offend anyone, but I'd like to give my personal opinione
here, too. I think the current JS code is quite horrible. It is
inconsistent and has grown and been rewritten several times. I just
recently submitted a PR that cleans up usage of the jquery fileupload
library.

Fact is we are already using jQuery and it helps a lot with browser
inconsistencies, animations and the fancy stuff. The AppTemplateAdvanced
shows an example of how apps can use AngularJS. And I assume any apps
not already using these two will slowly be ported to them.

So with these two frameworks we already have a path for future
development. The two together solve 80% of our problems and we can
concentrate on solving the 20% left - which happen to be the interesting
problems.

Nothing is set in stone here. Whoever submits working code will be
embraced, I guess.

Happy coding!

Jörn
