Web: Single Page Application Is Not a Silver Bullet

Seva Zaikov - Single Page Application Is Not a Silver Bullet:



Single-page applications are everywhere. Even blogs, simple html pages (in the beginning something like https://danluu.com/), have turned into big fat monsters – for example, jlongster’s blog has 1206 stars at the moment of writing, and not because of the content (people usually subscribe to blogs rather than star the source): the only reason is that once he implemented it using React & Redux. What is the problem, though? He wants, he makes it, no questions here. The problem is that it is considered normalto make blogs for reading so bloated – of course, there are some people who complain, but the general response is utterly positive. But who cares about blogs – the problem is that nowadays pretty often question is not “to SPA or not to SPA”, rather “which client-side framework should we use for our SPA”.
