Subject: [PATCH 3/5] www_coderepo: update blurb on the goal/purpose of this
Date: Sat, 8 Oct 2022 08:24:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221008082448.9856-4-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221008082448.9856-1-e@80x24.org>
I think putting too much functionality in web services leads
to ignorance of local/offline tools, so this web UI will give
hints here and there for web users. Things like diff options
can get expensive and become cache-unfriendly on the web server,
so promoting local tools can reduce overall network traffic
and server load.
