Adopting a Rails-like convention-over-configuration mindset, Aurelia makes it a snap to start even complex projects, because the most common design principles and best practices are implemented in new projects by default. Aurelia is a web framework that makes it much easier to create single page web applications. Aurelia was written with ES6, so modern JavaScript design principles are baked in from the ground level.

Try Aurelia, and you may not go back to your old web framework. Flexible and efficient, Aurelia enforces modern design practices and a modular architecture based on web components. It’s perfect for hybrid web + mobile apps, with hot features like dynamic routes, pluggable pipelines, and APIs for nearly every flavor of JavaScript.
