Building a Maintainable Bi-Directional Cross Platform Protocol

Explore a JSConf talk on designing and implementing a flexible RPC-style protocol for cross-platform client-server communication. Learn how to create a service layer that can adapt to growing application needs while reducing API maintenance overhead. Discover strategies for systematically developing a protocol that diverges from traditional RESTful principles, enabling developers to focus on feature building rather than API boilerplate. Gain insights into protocol design, architecture, versioning, and implementation details for creating maintainable bi-directional communication across multiple platforms.
