Funny enough. I’m opening this on mobile internet connection and it stuck at loading spinner. I don’t know if the problem is with my internet (probably not) or support for mobile so I can’t even read the content.

I wish I hadn't read the replies. I love being made the fool (though not to worry, I'll have plenty of other opportunities, likely today!)

I have to say that I hate SPAs. It is often a far worse user experience than the vanilla multi-page websites.

Like most defenses of Single Page Applications it managed to make me angry, at least at first.
