Thanks for this Lon.

As I begin contemplating a move from WO -> Cayenne, I’m really appreciating 
hearing what folks are using from a front-end perspective. Wicket looks like a 
pretty interesting one and from a familiarity perspective may be the best I’ve 
seen coming from a WO background.

Since I haven’t made the leap I don’t know how folks are binding various 
front-end technologies, like angular etc., to a ORM backend. I’m assuming by 
moving toward web api’s.

From a non-familiarity perspective (and focused more on broadening skillsets), 
I’m thinking of looking at Node.js to leverage ORM experience but also branch 
more into front-ends the way the kids are doing it. I don’t expect many from 
the WO army have gone that direction but curious to hear of any experiences.
