It looks like there's good reason for this, but how would the client be able to act as a fallback for the server as proposed?
This is an exceptional case and only works for user with JS enabled.
"Client" here would be the client-side JS, served by Wikibase.
In case there is no response from the SSR, the fallback would be CSR-only, i.e. it will only work for people with js enabled.
This addresses the rare scenario that there is no working SSR configured (in installations run by 3rd parties now WMF) and still offers termbox features, but at the cost of not being accessible to users with JS disabled.
My question here was more, how can the client render everything it needs, when some of the logic, for example for data-access, is only in the src/server/data-access folder? In other words, if the client functionality is a super-set of the server, I would expect only common and client folders, and the server to use logic out of the common folder. I'm asking both for the termbox right now and plans for this service in the long-run.
