You’re right that it’s much, much more difficult to do client side SPAs! But also, that level of interactivity is pretty much expected now even from layman end users whether they realize it or not. Requiring a full page refresh is very limiting when building out web apps, for a bunch of reasons. There are a few sort of “hybrid” approaches out there that work reasonably well, but the reality in 2024 is that nearly any web app that sees even moderate levels of success is going to grow in complexity to a place where SPA is the right choice. So we have a bunch of SPA experts building apps that they expect to need SPA levels of complexity…you can do the math.
