Over the last few years I've found fast full stack tests to be invaluable in facilitating a rapid rate of development. I've yet to implement this approach but it sounds like the next logical step for me.

Disappointing to see you didn't use browser-monkey in your stack though :-(

Browser-monkey is awesome, and for a real project I'd consider using it. I'd also use a virtual dom UI library like Vue, React, Hyperdom or similar.

For a teaching example I think it's essential to reduce the number of external libraries, or else it's too much to take in.
