Got to be MVC right?

Put the data all the way over there. Put the view all the way on the other side over there. And then start tying it togther in the middle. I was pretty young when I learnt about it, but it's been by far the most influential on me.

Also I'm not sure if this is a programming paradigm, or just good practice, but strongly typed parameters + throwing errors if they're not the right type. I thought TypeScript was the bees knees when it came along.

The fun part is that what you're describing is not actually MVC. Just like RESTful APIs, the original MVC concept has been mostly forgotten and its name reused for different flavors of the model-view-presenter pattern.

There have been some interesting discussions and submissions on MVC here on HN.
