Write libraries instead of services, where possible
https://catern.com/services.html… and I couldn’t agree more:
A service has constant administration costs which are paid by the service provider. A library instead moves these costs to the users of the library.
For any developer with limited resources, this means a library (where viable) can provide the same functionality to the user, at a lower cost to the developer than a service.
