Name

The naming of the term 'Isomorphic JavaScript' has been a matter of controversy. [1] The term 'isomorphic' was first coined by Charlie Robbins from Nodejitsu, in one of the company's blog posts. [2] Spike Brehm, a software engineer from Airbnb, wrote another blog post using the same term. [3] However, others have proposed to use the term Universal JavaScript instead. [1] [4]

Frameworks

There have been several isomorphic JavaScript frameworks and libraries created, most notably Miso and Meteor (framework). Others include Next.js, Nuxt, Sveltekit, Rendr, Derby, Ezel and Catberry.[ citation needed ]
