Do it all in one file - mix up your functions so they call a lot of
others - then make them call back to themselves;
It's called job security;} <-- iterative functions ensure job security
Simple:
- break up your apps into pieces, and make each piece responsible for
it's own behavior {this should be fundamental}
- keep you data in one place
- use 'state' at your own risk
Harder:
- break up you application into its functionly parts
- decide which is user interaction
- decide which is server {aka 'the rest of the world'} interaction
- decide what logic should be done where; hmmn client/server or ....
sever/client
- apply glue, and wait ten minutes
