Julia's current state of web-programming

Hi all,

What is the current state of web programming with Julia?

http://juliawebstack.org/ seems quite out of date (still suggesting to use Morsel, which is marked as deprecated).

Escher looks quite nice (https://github.com/shashi/Escher.jl), but still fails to build on both 0.4 and 0.5 versions (but it does seem to be actively developed).

Thanks!
Alexey

Escher is pretty cool, but it’s more about data interactions and visualizations (dashboards?), rather than building full featured web apps and products. 

I’m working on Genie: https://github.com/essenciary/Genie.jl a full stack MVC web framework for Julia, in the spirit of Rails or Django. 

It now runs smoothly on both 0.4 and 0.5 - it’s still WIP, but it’s got pretty much all the necessary features already (ORM, templating system, authentication, authorization, caching, migrations, model validators, etc). Also, it now takes full advantage of Julia’s parallel programming capabilities, using multiple cores to handle requests, which is pretty cool.  

If you check here: http://genieframework.com/packages (built with Genie btw) you’ll find a few more options - like Merly and Bukdu. 

Other than that you have the low(er) level components: Mux, HttpServer, WebSockets.

Thanks! I will check out Genie: it looks like what I'm looking for (maybe a bit too much even, would have to learn more).
