13. JavaScript
Any dynamic programming during the request/response cycle is handled by JavaScript, running entirely
on the client. This could be any frontend framework, library, or even vanilla JavaScript.
APIs
All server-side processes or database actions are abstracted into reusable APIs, accessed over HTTPS
with JavaScript. These can be custom-built or leverage third-party services.
Markup
Templated markup should be prebuilt at deploy time, usually using a site generator for content
sites, or a build tool for web apps.
