Mesop's API is... interesting. It seems to replace all REST/CRUD/MVC abstractions with some kind of RPC,
Big shade of Towards a Modern Web Stack vibes, where someone guts everything that makes the web the web & attaches a completely non-web different world inside to move the flesh.
I have to admit, I don't think we have gotten a lot better about rest & operations/mutations & data-stores this decade. I'm far from ready to give up & start stubbing in rpc systems as we feel like it - that sounds deeply anti #rfc8890 -which is the holiest most spiritual tenant of the internet - but I do wish we at.least had worked on & tried to make stitching front & back end together over rest better, more visibly. Like GraphQL, I both want to purge this with fire, but I also appreciate the challenge; the bar should be raising!
And uh... yeah. On that other thing: hammering on a out front end fatigue is some weak-kneed reactionary bullshit, is extremely low road toxic-trash-talk culture shit. The front end has actually uhh gotten good? Do like everyone else & use vite & pick any of the really good ecosystems that've been around for a long time (React, Svelte, Vue, Alpine, maybe Qwik or Solid)
