> On ListenNotes.com, most web pages are half server-side rendered (Django template) and half client-side rendered (React). The server-side rendered part provides a boilerplate of a web page, and the client-side rendered part is basically an interactive web app.

Imagine now every time you change sever side you need to make sure you don't break client side. These dependencies are a big tech debt.

How come not using docker there is less overhead? Not using docker I need to worry way much than using it. Like do I need to install anything? Versions works? How do I reproduce my env if my machine breaks?.... You'd need to write docs and keep them in sync.
