RESTful? It's the mixture of concepts you did here.
I'd say an opposite to "monolith" is "polylith" or, in your case, micro-services. -

Crost41083yWorth noting that a micro service is just a subset of service orientated architecture. You can also have a modularised single solution which I don't believe we would call a monolith.

sariel85313y@minsomai no. Frontend is frontend.
Backend is service oriented. Does your backend maintain multiple business processes? For example, does it perform; user management, sign up, data retention(file attachments), and other business related logic.
If yes, congrats! You have a monolith!
If your backend is built of multiple separate dedicated services that interact with each other through integrations and had dedicated databases(sometimes), then you have microservices! -
useVim21433y@sariel thanks for the clarification. and I learnt that the correct term for my type of app is called RESTful architecture or N-layer architecture.
there's monolith web applications, what's the opposite of it called? the RESTful ones.
