Basic Routing vs Client-Side Routing
Developers should learn basic routing to build functional web applications that can serve multiple pages, handle form submissions, and create RESTful APIs, as it is a core requirement in frameworks like Express meets developers should learn client-side routing when building modern single-page applications (spas) with frameworks like react, angular, or vue. Here's our take.
Basic Routing
Developers should learn basic routing to build functional web applications that can serve multiple pages, handle form submissions, and create RESTful APIs, as it is a core requirement in frameworks like Express
Basic Routing
Nice PickDevelopers should learn basic routing to build functional web applications that can serve multiple pages, handle form submissions, and create RESTful APIs, as it is a core requirement in frameworks like Express
Pros
- +js, Django, and Flask
- +Related to: express-js, django
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Client-Side Routing
Developers should learn client-side routing when building modern single-page applications (SPAs) with frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue
Pros
- +js, as it enables faster navigation, reduces server load, and improves perceived performance by avoiding full page refreshes
- +Related to: single-page-applications, react-router
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Basic Routing if: You want js, django, and flask and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Client-Side Routing if: You prioritize js, as it enables faster navigation, reduces server load, and improves perceived performance by avoiding full page refreshes over what Basic Routing offers.
