Client Side Development in SharePoint is about much more than creating animated buttons and hiding fields on a page. Using the Client Side Object Model and REST, developers can create full blown applications that interact with SharePoint with many of the same results and traditional managed code development. However, which path should a developer choose? With all things in SharePoint "it depends."
