Web Application Architectures
Overview
Web applications fall into three main architectural patterns, each with distinct characteristics for navigation, state management, and user experience.
Multi Page Application (MPA)
The traditional web model - each navigation triggers a full page request to the server.
How It Works
User clicks link → Browser requests new HTML → Server renders full page → Browser loads entire page
Characteristics
| Aspect | Behavior |
