The best skeleton I've found (if anything, it does too much even) is Otto Chrons' SPA tutorial: https://github.com/ochrons/scalajs-spa-tutorial That's what I've used for one of my projects and it's worked out pretty well!

It's been through a few iterations by now and represents a number of best practices The biggest benefit is probably having a solid type system that's isomorphic. Large, complex responses and post bodies can be seamlessly passed around with full IDE support and refactoring. Beyond that, it's scala.
