And I don't think making a web framework would be a focus of Julia since it was built with science and computing mindset.
This might be cliché but use right tools for the job. I still use Ruby for web development and Julia for the science and machine learning stuffs (gradually moved from Python ecosystem).
one thing people don't see is how "free" things are in Julia... we don't need half a million line CMake and C++ then bind to Python to make something work, and we don't need monorepos that re-invent same interface (array, numpy, autodiff etc.) three times. It just works™, and small libraries constantly build on top of something with only ~100 lines and gives you something fast and flexible.
Installing on windows (workday I'm consigned to flames of woe) is simply a matter of downloading portable install .zip file, a simple startup .bat script[0], 'add Pluto', 'import Pluto' and finally 'Pluto.run()'
I now have an Observable-like[1]notebook with all the Julialang goodness without running an installer
