Frontin' like a Back-er
summary
Explains why React paired with a Flux pattern replaces tangled DOM-jQuery code by showing concrete code: JSX components with props/state, a todo app wired to a Lumen backend JSON API, actions dispatched through Alt-style stores, and live updates via a dispatcher. Demonstrates server-side rendering with checksum to hydrate the client, measures why React diffs beat AngularJS dirty-checking, and maps backend request → domain → view into a unidirectional data flow. Includes working examples and implementation details.
