Nathan Rozentals

Nathan Rozentals has been writing commercial software for over 30 years, in C, C++, Java and C#. He picked up TypeScript within a week after its initial release in October 2012 and realized how much TypeScript could help when writing JavaScript. He was one of the first people to start blogging about TypeScript, discussing early frameworks such as Backbone, Marionette, ExtJS and AngularJs. He knew he'd hit the mark when Microsoft staff started to reference his blog posts in their CodePlex discussion forums. Nathan's TypeScript solutions now control User Interfaces in IoT devices, run as stand-alone applications for Point-of-Sale solutions, provide complex application configuration web sites, and are used for mission-critical server APIs.

We will also integrate our front-ends with the REST API that we built in Chapter 15, An AWS Serverless API. This will ensure that both the React Product List front-end and the Vue Shopping Cart front-end work off the same list of products, as exposed by the /products endpoint.

In a production front-end, the general idea is that each application is a "silo," and therefore has its own REST endpoints and databases, in such a way that each team has the freedom to modify any piece of their architecture without affecting other front-ends. In reality, though, there will always be some sort of shared data that all front-end applications may need access to. As an example, a store of registered users might be shared across front-ends, or a...
