The context
SPF.js a lightweight javascript library to incorporate dynamic page updates that dramatically reduces perceived page latency. Quoting from the Repo Homepage:
Using progressive enhancement and HTML5, SPF integrates with your site to enable a faster, more fluid user experience by updating just the sections of the page that change during navigation, not the whole page. SPF provides a response format for sending document fragments, a robust system for script and style management, an in-memory cache, on-the-fly processing, and more.
While for complex dynamic sites which have a significant amount of client side logic, I still recommend adopting a client side javascript framework, but for content focussed sites, a nifty utility like SPF.js can be very useful.
