I am mostly annoyed with people jumping out with absolutes which are fake.
Yes you don't need to make everything SPA - but yes SPA has its legitimate use cases. There will be always bunch of people overusing stuff or using it in wrong contexts but yeah complaint posts are usually written with narration of "all or nothing".

Mine wasn't, I specifically said that some UIs are complex enough to justify an SPA.
Probably the majority of the internet doesn't need to be implemented as an SPA but I guess I just keep getting gigs for apps that do need an SPA implementation? Maybe I'm self selected for it by working so much in this "niche" of the industry? I have recently been tasked with building out an ecommerce thing and it's finally a time where I'm like wait why would I build this as an SPA, and I've heard that most of the internet is basically just ecommerce sites lol.
Anyway, I would love to see some of the common things I implement in SPAs, and how I'd implement them instead in Django or whatever, cause I'd love to stop having to reimplement cookie and auth management and whatever else these things supposedly give away for free
1. Highly dynamic tables of data with filtering, sorting, pagination, etc
2. Inline editing of a Resource (Widget of some kind) without needing to refresh the entire page
3. Inline progressive forms with lots of logic (one time I had to implement an SQL query generator game)
Or whatever else I'm not thinking of right now
