Compares AngularJS, Ember and React by concrete measures: learning resources, tooling, tests, performance and adoption, using Brikman’s scorecard and ToDoMVC examples. Finds only Angular includes tests, 12k JS vs 43k JS vs 24k JS for the ToDo apps, Ember renders slower in benchmarks, React and Ember support server-side rendering while Angular plans it for v2, Ember has the strongest security posture, Angular dominates community size (Angular: 118k StackOverflow, Ember: 16k, React: 5k), and the aggregated scorecard unexpectedly rates Ember highest.
