" summary

Argues that hypermedia links and forms make client-side composition of tiny services practical, showing how a RestFest hack built worker bots that actually compose translation, mapping and posting tasks and worked as an ecosystem. Warns that granularity and hidden dependencies create brittleness, so teams rely on Node Erlang Go for asynchrony and push toward microservices composed by client with parallelism and heuristics to pick dependable backends rather than central glue.
