I was looking at the Caldera micro chat example, but noticed that the local state does not update the shared state until after the form send? Why not during the onChange() event? I am assuming the number of requests would be too high for the simple json file io?

Or am I thinking of this incorrectly? This is the first time I've investigated a solution of this type.

Don’t let anyone fool you. We let a generation of progress go to complete waste because some fools wanted to run JS on the front end and backend instead of actually fixing the front end debacle that existed.

It’s a shame we didn’t make better use of our time solving the problem before the JS posers did their horrors by pretending that the solution was to take front end languages and code the backend.
