Developed as an immediate to near-term solution until typical web hosting companies make it easy to run JS on the server (e.g. Node.js)\, CASSIS is a fast functional open source JS-subset and framework you can use today to implement applicat ion logic once and have it run both dynamically in browsers with JS\, and o n the server for when JS is not supported (search engines)\, is disabled (s ecurity)\, or slow (mobile).
