> With RAVE-914 we now have the rave core functionality isolated from the portal. This allows us to refactor the portal application and write it as a reference implementation on top of the rave core with the following goals:
> - Support generic data contexts for pages - portal, profile, portfolio or whatever else. No more hard coded portal page vs profile page. 
> - Allow implementers to extend the portal application with less reliance on overlays.
> - Move away from jsps or other heavy-lifting view rendering logic from the server.
> I'm proposing to use angularjs (http://angularjs.org/) as a client side mvc framework. This would be in place of previous efforts to implement the portal using backbonejs and handlebars. Basic roadmap:
> - Move away from jsp's, either moving to a lighter-weight rendering framework or consider serving only raw html with no rendering framework on the server at all.
> - Rewrite / update portal's views as angularjs compatible markup.
> - Write the portal js as an angularjs application that interacts with the rave core. 
> - Use the new rest apis to serve data for client side navigation and partial view loads.
> - Allow implementers to extend rave portaljs for custom functionality without overlaying, allow them to add views for new custom contexts without requiring overlays.
