Thinkserver: My web-based coding environment

I think you mean that you've been building a lot of simple applications? Because that's not really what microservices are.

I mean sure it's just a word and HN especially loves to spit on original definitions, but it is always kinda jarring to hear these technical terms in settings that have pretty much no overlap with the original definition.

If you think as yourself as an application and you are surrounding yourself by small service applications that do one specific task...then I could see it make sense.

Seems like we'll need to coalesce on a term for these. A microapp[0]? Or a tiny app[1][2]?
