The presentation introduces and discusses mu.semte.ch: a platform for building state-of-the-art web applications fuelled by Linked Data aware microservices. The mu.semte.ch platform assumes a mashup-like construction of single page web applications which consume various services. In order to reuse tooling built in the community, Linked Data is not pushed to the frontend.
Each service offers very specific functionality by querying and altering a specific type of information in a joint Linked Data model and database. Microservices communicate by using the same semantic model in the data layer. Developer productivity is boosted by providing microservice templates in the backend and sharable addons in the frontend.
Experience shows that the framework offers a productive way of quickly developing practical applications on top of Linked Data covering various situations and domains. Code can be extensively shared across projects in the frontend as well as in the backend which shortens the application development time drastically.
