Cloud Rendering

This TodoMVC app is a proof-of-concept of cloud-rendering based web development.

Key Features

• All the "rendering", computing, state management and business logic run on server instead of client.
• JS code loaded to client side will always stay the same small size no matter how big your application is.
• Near-perfect performance (since your front-end JS code only work on communicating with server, patching HTML and binding events).

Roadmap

• Use diff instead of full HTML string to patch
• Find a better way (complier?) to annotate event binding and DOM state hacks (e.g. checked)
• Allow some JS code to be compiled to front-end to solve the problem of intensive inputs
• Add UI to notify users of connection lost
• Handle/restore lost session
• Try Vue.js

Setup

$ npm run install
