It looks like this is Ring UI. It looks like that is React. It also looks like it only runs on NodeJS. So this could be good news if you're willing to use JavaScript (NodeJS) as the server and use or switch to React style, JavaScript dedicated, back-end work. Is this something the Enterprise is willing to do?

It's a UI framework built with React. It has nothing to do with the backend and you can use whatever server language you want.

Yes. Definitely

Enterprises are already moving in this direction.

  Facebook is a large geek shop; not how the vast majority of enterprises work or can work for that matter.

    I'm not talking about facebook. I've implemented this for Fortune 50 financial firms and telcos. Wall Street Journal is react. Wal-Mart is all in on react and even open sourced their own isomorphic framework. It's being adopted very broadly and very quickly.

    I haven't seen such a quick uptake in enterprise, since the late 90s when everyone began using Java and universities took it up as a teaching language. Enterprise cares predominantly about hireability, and Javascript has been the only language for the web for decades. Everyone who even tangentially has a brush with web technologies knows it, and if your company has a frontend team you already have people at your company who know Javascript well. I predict Javascript will continue to see growing use serverside, at least until the point ten years from now when WebAssembly is mature enough that people can develop for the frontend as well as the backend in any language.

They also have some components in there for Angular 1 (check the components directory): https://upsource.jetbrains.com/ring-ui/structure/8967f994059b3f3f28e0a9eefbbf23aec9a245fb/ https://upsource.jetbrains.com/ring-ui/structure/8967f994059... Also, I hadn't heard of their Upsource product before, it looks really nice.
