With official nodejs haxe externs on the haxefoundation github now I think that is also where a lot of web apps are made.
I write all my apps and services in node where I can. To do that in haxe with the node power is a boon.

My company's website - https://www.sandboxd.com/ is entirely built in Haxe specifically with my https://github.com/Blank101/haxe-dom library. Haxe has been amazing for things such as complete re-use of server/client code. Deep linking with server-side construction of all web pages. Every navigation after the first is using AJAX with no page reload AKA single page app.

1) Same strictly typed language on client and on server.2) Ability to run on cheapest hosts (php) and then upgrade to something better. (theoretically possible NodeJS, Java Servlets and even C++ CGI)3) Macroses, while dangerous allow frameworks to be more concise.
and others...
I think to move Haxe forward in web development we need a big hit web application. Ideally we all will use it on everyday basis.
So what is your idea of this application?
I'll start with offering my opinion:
I think we need a simple Wordpress like CMS, with plugins but without comments/blogs in basic configuration. A lot of sites use Wordpress this way.I think it can be done in ufront, be distributed basically for php based hosts and the advantage for end user will be the possibility to scale site to other platforms and I think basic functionality must be simpler.
Let's discusses in this thread what web application[s] we need and when we'll decide we'll open a separate thread[s]

Yay! :-)

Yep, PHP backend is great. And it writes great code too! It's also very stable - we serve 15mil / month sessions on very minimal hardware. Haxe has been very powerful in being able to optimize compared to pure PHP (mostly in conditional compilation).

I would like to add Nicolas Juneau's Harfang (https://github.com/njuneau/Harfang) to the list of basic web frameworks (UFront, Beluga, Poko) - it has some simple but smart macro driven routing/controller stuff.
And with official Haxe NodeJS around the corner, we should soon be able to build upon that - Node Express might be the most used framework.
how bout www.haxejs.com , angular +haxe

The biggest problem I've found when using Wordpress as a developer is that everything is page / article based. Yes you can do some horrible hacks to get around this, but, well, they're horrible.
Then there's also caching. I've never found a REALLY good cache for Wordpress that works as advertised. Especially once you've gone and hacked the hell out of it to get it to do what you want.

So what web application you would like to use? As I wrote before most people use wordpress I think it has more than 50% of the world CMS share. What advantages can we provide to make people switch from Wordpress to our cms?
Here are my ideas:
1. Internationalization, in wordpress it needs plugins to work and is not very usable, if we'll develop the CMS with built in internationalization (a site with more than one language) we might lure users to our CMS. Also I see lot of Haxe devs from all of the world who might feel the need to create sites in more than one language.
2. A/B testing, it's a very good tool from which everybody can benefit. If our CMS will automatically offer instead of just add changes to A/B test them it will be a great tool and a lot of people would like to use it.
Please tell what you think about this and offer your ideas and what would you use.
