Nice work, Mike. How do you like working in Aurelia? I've been doing a lot of work in React, and while I like it a lot, there's a lot of churn in the ecosystem, and I sometimes get a bit worn down by having to cobble applications together from lots of small pieces. I'm starting to lean a bit more toward things like Angular 2 and Ember that are a bit more opinionated. I haven't tried Aurelia yet, but it looks like it is somewhat opinionated and relies on convention over configuration to a certain extent. Is that a fair assessment? |

Aurelia is a really great framework, I just hope it gets more traction as others have recently. My first experience with frontend frameworks was Angular 1.x, but transitioning to Angular 2 just didn't feel right. I've also tried projects in React & Vue, but neither seem as well-rounded and feature-rich as Aurelia.
You're right in your assumptions of Aurelia, Angular 2, Ember all being opinionated, however I think the "opinions" are often different in Aurelia's approach. They are putting a strong emphasis on adopting existing and emerging web standards (their custom element/attribute stuff is all following the web components standard), which I can see helping to fight against the fatigue that lots of people face with the 'flavour of the month' framework, as it'll no longer be what a team of developers thought was best at the time and will be the opinions of a standardisation team that has no vested interest in the framework itself.
