Do We Really Need A Web API: Simplifying Communication Between Layers
Too Long; Didn't Read
Liaison aims to get rid of "pain-in-the-ass" web APIs. Frontend and backend can communicate directly with language they are implemented in. A frontend class can "inherit" from a backend class. When a method is called, if this method is missing in the frontend, the corresponding method is executed in the backend, automatically. Liaison is still at an early stage, and a lot of work remains so it can be used in production. I expect to release the first beta version in early 2020.
