Yeoman which is composed of three parts,
- Yo is the scaffolding tool; quickly set up all the parts of a new app
- Grunt is the build tool.
- Bower is a package manager for the web; like apt-get, use it to add components including their dependencies
Yeoman lets me set up projects to use many things, including Angular, Bootstrap, Compass, Modernizr
Do this:
yo webapp grunt serve
This will automatically launch a browser and point it to http://localhost:9000/ which is where your newly built app will be running. As you edit files in the webapp, the browser updates. Very cool.

HotGloo - $$ - Prototypes and wireframes -- "A website wireframe is a basic visual guide used in interface design to suggest the structure of a website and relationships between its pages. A webpage wireframe is a similar illustration of the layout of fundamental elements in the interface. Typically, wireframes are completed before any artwork is developed.” (Source: Wikipedia)
Moqups - $ - Wireframes
Angular.js - MVC like javascript framework
Backbone.js - "Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface. "
