Web applications have been evolving dramatically in recent years and many techniques have evolved to help our applications run faster, respond quickly, and load easily. With a wide array of modern development techniques it’s easy to overlook all of the options. Server-side Rendering web apps is one such option that has really impressive benefits when implemented in our applications.

Successful web app development requires delivering strong communication between backend servers and frontend applications. The end client of an API needs to easily understand how to utilize the system to develop features and improve the application. REST (REpresentational State Transfer) has historically been used as the paradigm for this communication.

My name is Ben Hofferber and I am one of the recent hires at Rangle. Over the course of the last couple months, I ditched or sold all of my things and moved to Toronto from Boise, Idaho. Visiting and consequently moving to Canada were my first and second times outside of the United States. I left my home to pursue a future with Rangle. Since it's not everyday that someone moves to another county for a job, I figured I'd tell you the story of why it was the easiest decision I've ever made.
