sizzle: Since we are building a site to host user scripts which are written in JavaScript, Node.js seems like the best choice. But node apis only provides basic web serving functionality. I personally use the Express framework because it makes things super simple (check the source of my site out to see for yourself).
sizzle: You also need some framework to build dynamic web pages.

I use Mustache because its syntax is stupid simple. You just give it a JSON object and renders based on the values and structure. See my [user script updater](https://github.com/sizzlemctwi
