Intro to single-page applications

- Single-Page Applications are pretty cool,…and even if you don't know what they are,…you probably have used them already.…Most of your favorite websites, like social media,…are built as Single-Page Applications.…They're primarily built using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.…SinglePage Applications are very scalable…as your bandwidth demands increase.…In the case of WordPress,…we're going to use just one PHP file…to power a multiviewed application.…Client Side loading is the user and their browser.…They are considered the client.…Instead of the server having to both get all the data…from the database and parse through all of your HTML…and send that back to the browser,…the browser handles all of the HTML.…

JavaScript, in particular, or more specifically,…parses or creates the HTML based on the data it received…from the server.…There are many benefits to loading on the Client Side.…There's less load on the server because…you're not parsing PHP and then sending back HTML.…All you're doing is sending back JSON,…which is just text.…
