Overview
Separating the user interface from the backend helps keep business rules in one place. For example, several forms can send requests to the same service, which validates data and updates status. Document the request and response structures so a backend change does not break existing consumers. Give error responses a consistent structure so the client system can distinguish invalid input from a temporary failure.
