Who says your backend needs to manage state?
What are the other options here then? Not trolling just wondering. If an app has state it has to be dealt with somewhere...
Interesting. What's your plan for dealing with state?
What do you mean by ‘no state management’ and why is it a good thing?
Are you suggesting an alternative or arguing that we shouldn't be storing state at all?
This is a good one. Management and understanding of state vs. just shipping all the state.
It's not the state that's the problem, it's the state being bundled with the code that operates on the state.
State? Keeping a single source of truth which changes every 1/100th second while millions of users are doing something to change that state?
Pretty much, which basically gives state to stateless system..
Would you mind explaining what you mean by stateless?
