Backend-as-a-Service platforms promise simplicity, but often lock developers into complex APIs authorization rules. What if your frontend could directly manage data, authorization, and collaboration - without domain-specific backend code?

In this talk, Oliver shares how he built a triplestore-based BaaS to power real-time collaboration in his side project MonsterWriter, and how the approach grew into an independent open-source project. We’ll see how LinkedRecords.com enables fine-grained authorization, simplifies real-time collaboration, and supports a Bring Your Own Backend model that gives organizations more control over their data and vendor relationships. It is also shown how global state management becomes a lot easier in React apps.

Jazz is a framework for building React apps without a backend. It takes the familiar idea of reactive state and adds real-time sync to the cloud and other users. You can set precise edit permissions on each bit of state right from the client as well, which means that basically all business logic now lives next to your UI. In this talk, we'll see what this looks like in practice by building a multi-user app that also works offline and across devices - in no time.
