> I can have a highly functional site in 10 minutes with Drupal, but node.js (express), Django, Rails, etc. all seem to take forever just to get something of minimal functional equivalence.
There's nothing about Express that enforces MVC and depending on your definition of 'highly functional' you can go from nothing to production in like 100 LOC with Express and npm.
Are you familiar at all with npm? There's a package or ten for everything.
