    That's five tiers better than a 3-tier architecture, isn't it? :-\

    Those aren't tiers; they're layers.

      To the tune of Dry Bones Song - The foot bone connected to the ankle bone - songs for kids Alina Celeste - YouTube[^] There's a schema for your table. The schema is connected to your Entity Framework class. The Entity Framework class is connected to your JS model. The JS model is connected to your store. The view is connected to your store. The grid is connected to your view. The columns are connected to your grid.... ...via the store which is connected to your JS model's definition of the EF class properties that is mapped to your database table's schema. So, all told, you have to define: The table schema The EF class The JS model The store The view The grid The grid columns and the store-model-fields that each column maps to. Ah, the redundancy of modern web-development!

                    Let's look at the technologies -- I'm on a VS 2017/C#/MVC project. The following "technologies" are in play:

                    • SQL Server
                    • SQL
                    • Transact SQL
                    • Entity Framework
                    • C#
                    • MVC
                    • LINQ
                    • Razor
                    • JavaScript
                    • JQuery
                    • GIT
                    • Gulp
                    • Babel

                    There's probably more if I think about it, but this illustrates the point. Is it any wonder that it's getting harder to get the younger generation into programming? Lot of folks are down on PHP, but it's got the saving grace that it's a lot less complicated.

No real requirement, because most of people run Windows. Even if you DREAM you'll use it on Android, just forget - top 20 of most used mobile programs are... ENTERTAINMENT!!! Nobody wastes his battery on login to accounting system being out of office!! Remember that before you WASTE time on web sh**t.

                                I don't use EF. What little time it takes me to code my own DO classes and build in anything like value transformation, try-catch, validation, etc. is minor compared to the problems it either avoids or reduces debug times down the road. I am NOT saying it is wrong to use it, just that I have not seen an explanation that gives me reason to use EF.

                                    Hi Thornik... To answer your question about client-server, it is mostly about not needing an application server as the web requires. Also, client-server systems are often closed-loop systems as a result of the fact that only a limited group of people would use these systems. This group could be as large as several thousand people or only a few. However, in all cases, such systems will be accessed only from within an institution and would not be available for public use, which is the main advantage of web development. In terms of an application server as it is viewed from a web development perspective, it is quite different in the client-server model as multiple such servers could exist based upon the number of physical tiers one wants to develop. Therefore, you would have an interface tier, which would primarily be a thin-client in Windows or WPF whose only function would be to retrieve and display data. A business-logic tier that would support all of the application's functionality as it relates to the handling of data, a data-access tier that would house a data-access-layer that would do the actual retrieval and updating of data, and finally the database tier where the database engine is run and maintains the data stores. Such a topology has been proven over the years to be highly efficient. And the more users that need access to the system, the more tiered servers you could add, making efficiency and performance a completely hardware-based construct. Because everything is developed with a minimum of technologies (ie: languages for example; you only need your development language of choice and your database language (SQL)), complexity is substantially reduced. Web development was originally supposed to be based off of such a technology model but organizations became very complacent and lazy in terms of their architectures whereby you had the browser interface, an application server that handled literally everything and a database engine. Some organizations did follow the client-server model but not many which gave rise to performance issues. As a result, technology elites and evangelists who were always promoting the latest and greatest tools and technologies decided that everything could be made more efficient through code. Thus, ASP.NET WebForms was derided based on claims about it that, though true, were not true to the extent that the platform was of no value any longer. However, that was the plan; get rid of WebForms (which was actually based upon the client-server model) and fo
