Since Cake is inspired by Ruby on Rails maybe "jRails" is more appropriate.
It's going to be more like CakePHP then it is going to be like RoR,
therefor jCake is going to stay. It's not like I don't think RoR
deserves major credit, it definitely does. But there are things I do not
like about it. One of them is it's folder layout, which is compared to
CakePHP <https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/trunk/cake/1.x.x.x>, quite a mess.
Other then the common folder layout and MVC pattern I do not plan on
porting much else of CakePHP or RoR. The main reason for creating it is
to organize and structure Javascript code. It's not about form
validation, queries, associations or whatever. It's only about keeping
things maintainable and light weight (only dynamically include the JS
that is required for a certain page).
Therefor something like TrimPath might be a good inspiration in general,
but is a totally different kind of project.

Hi Felix,

I have looked at the code and I don't recommend taking it without a
very close look. I was able to break the TrimQuery code in
unacceptable ways. I also don't think that putting a MVC in a regular
browser page is necesarily a good idea. A combination of Ajax and
server processing could be faster.

I was thinking about a project called "Harmony" which would be
JavaScirpt on Rails. That way the client and server would be using the
same language and form validation both client and server could share
code and stay DRY. After some investigation I decided that the
Ajax/dumb client route was the better path in general and follows the
web's client-server model better.
