It's not an experiment though. The divide is clear, you have a client application, and then server applications that the client talks to. This is even more true if you want a lot of interactivity. This line isn't going away anytime soon. There will always be an application that runs on the edge device or machine, and it needs to talk to some other application to store and retrieve data.

The secret is to make the thing that runs on the backend the application, and the thing that runs on the edge device the user interface.
