client-side

I'm working on a new client-side only app with the latest version of Ember.js. There is a single PHP page which builds the scripts, css, template files, etc. and delivers it all into index.php. I'm using an htaccess directive so that all requests are rewritten to /index.php. The PHP is only there to conveniently package the Javascript, as far as I'm concerned.

On a side note, is there any way at all to do this in JavaScript? I know it's probably not possible, just wondering if there are any crafty ways to pull it off going completely through the client.
