spa-as-a-service

Single Page Application as a Service POC

Idea

Around 2015 I came with idea to create a SPA application as a service where input would be a DB structure. After many iterations of trying this out, and finding out that it is much harder than I initially though, I came last year with idea to limit the scope of it to just frontend, letting the backend do whatever the need is.

Challanges

• Designing a basic API for the solution
• Solving problem of a custom extending the basic solution

Techonlogies

• JSON - feels like a most obviuos decision for the API
• Typescript on both server and browser side, would allow to reuse the API definition
• Node NPM feels like a obvious option for handling some (minimum) dependencies problem
