Someone should make an opinionated, batteries-included JS/TS framework like Elm, based on TS, React, Flux.

The JavaScript world doesn't like that. That's why no one has made a carbon copy of Rails.

Even React, Flux, Router and etc comes in several parts.

I know railties are modular but at least they come from the same project and repo and update together.

Yeah, the JS world currently is very pro-modularization, but I already saw some discussions on Twitter from the React/Flux people how that creates too big barrier of entry for the newcomers. One of the things that draw people to Angular is that it has almost everything that you need included - it's easier to say to someone "just use Angular", than "try React, with Redux, and Router, and Webpack - it will take some time to configure it, but it's worth it".

Ember would be the Rails equivalent in JS-land
