Apps vs State vs Services: In six parts

• Prologue (3 min read)
• The application (2 min read)
• Application state (3 min read)
• The system, aka the services (2 min read)
• The method and the application (2 min read)
• Postscript (2 min read)

The service oriented / micro-service technique I use is referred as simply simply “The Method.” “The Method” was created by iDesign and Juval Lowy. You can learn more about “The Method” at iDesign and here you can see Juval describe “The Method.”

These 6 posts are an attempt to reconcile “The Method” [service/micro-service development] with application development. As way of an example I refer to a message board / info radiator I recently built. I use this example as a way to talk about application design.
