What kind of stuff do you give up with an SPA?
- nurettin 2y agoYou give up server redirects and cookie auth. (well you don't lose cookie auth, but you need extra steps for it to prevent CSRF)
- stackghost 2y agoYou can just have the server return a json object instructing the frontend to navigate, accomplishing server redirects.
- ftmch 2y agoJavascript can do browser redirects, but those are not actual 301 HTTP redirects.
- stackghost 2y agoYes, what I'm saying is that you can have the backend return e.g. "{ "response": 301, "redirectUrl": "https://example.com https://example.com" }", and then have the frontend handle that properly, and you get the functional equivalent. I'm aware that it is different under the hood.
