Link-Redux TODO
This is an example React TODO application for Link-redux.
The example is currently serverless, which isn't a realistic scenario, so data processing is done client-side which is a bit cumbersome.
In a realistic setting, nearly all web-apps are backed by a server-side application that processes incoming requests to update the state of the system. Link was designed to take advantage of that by adding a requirement that the server sends back the difference in state when done processing the request. So duplication of logic becomes unnecessary (no more 'isomorphic' nor choosing your back-end technology to suit the front-end!). This means the font-end has to be loosely-modeled.
All views for each model are programmed, if done properly, implicitly (the front-end
tries not to do too many assumptions on the model's shape). So most model's views
will contain elements from the base resource type (e.g. Resource of Thing), but
if greater specificity in displaying a model is needed, it can be added.
TODO
This project isn't finished yet, so it has todos..
- Add a backend.
- Let hypermedia drive the state changes
- Add data filtering.
