Thinking Outside the Box: Alternative Architectures for Modern Web Applications
In a world dominated by traditional architectures, developers often overlook other patterns that could better serve their apps. This talk explores lessons from around the globe and across industries.
First, we’ll explore Mini Apps—born of China’s super apps like WeChat—showing how their dual-thread model and lifecycle design deliver remarkable performance in constrained environments.
Then, we’ll rethink browser apps using the Entity-Component-System (ECS) model from game development, showing how its data-oriented design can address complex state challenges and unlock new levels of performance.
