They'll always be applicable; the wheel of smart client dumb client will never stop turning. Server based page rendering isn't outdated, it's not an either or situation, it's an and situation. React and Angular have not replaced server rendering and Ajax updates of fragments, they're merely additional options you now have. Perfectly fine and functional applications can and are still being done in what you call the old way and they always will be. Give it a few years, the wheel will turn again and dumb clients will come back into fashion as they always do and have since the green screen mainframe days. > 1. Does Pharo support multiple OS/native threads? No. What you do is run multiple processes on the backend and load balance between them via a proxy. Apache/haproxy, whatever. > 2. Can I run Seaside headless? Of course. > 3. The Seaside book at http://book.seaside.st/book/advanced/restful/nutshell talks about REST services in two models but seems to only give an example for the case I am not interested in. Is there a tutorial for the REST centric core model? Frankly I wouldn't use Seaside if I were attempting RESTful services, I'd find another option. There's probably already a nice Smalltalk REST framework, but if not it wouldn't take much effort to hack up something like Sinatra in Smalltalk for doing it. -- Ramon Leon _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [email protected] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside
