@david_syer @ewolff Not really; people didn’t seem to get this back then, either – everyone tried to apply fat server frameworks.

@stilkov Can you link to any good resources on that discussion. Entering a fight on Monday and need some ammunition.

@zauberfinger All of @adactio’s stuff on that topic is very good. In general, seems common sense to me. Like learning an RBDMB before ORM.

@stilkov wait, no. Server side is often a totally different use case. Sometimes a viable one. But not first/then. Cc @bitboss

@dtanzer @bitboss Frankly, I can’t imagine anyone is qualified to build a client-side MVC JS app who doesn’t know how to do it server-side

@stilkov @codepo8 urm aren't you forgetting JS MVC apps still need servers? Or, well, RESTful APIs? Learn them first then JS.

@sidonaldsoncode @codepo8 How am I forgetting that? By pointing out that you should know how to build those servers?

@deploynix @stilkov js controlled & served by the server is always coupled. Which is the awesome magic of the web and browsers.
