This doesn't answer my question. It just criticizes my use of the word "generate" and tells me what AngularJS does. The question is: how do I avoid two requests to the server?

The criticism comes from, as recommended by Backbone, Angular, Jquery, and many other libraries, the skeleton of your application should be static with libraries, templates, it should be made available in a distributed environment (maybe a CDN). So in my opinion, in a MV* context, the first response from the server 1) does not generate HTML, 2) does not generate load in your application.

I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying. But generating a skeleton (which is HTML) does require work on the server unless it is truly static and cache-able. Browsers have limitations on the number of concurrent requests. I was curious whether there was a way to eliminate one of the first hits. Templates have the benefit of being truly static and therefore are cached. Those don't concern me as much as the dynamic content - the skeleton and the API data. @zachary-k answers my question and now I am just hoping for other possible approaches.
