I’ve been interested in this topic as well for a UI redesign I’m planning. From what I can find, this [answer](https://discourse.dojo.io/t/dojo2-and-nodejs/253) addresses it succinctly. In short, use the standard fetch API calls to do the networking (interacting with your RESTful service) and Dojo stores to do the data management client-side (a store with fetch calls built into it?). I guess the build system will generate an app that works on browsers that do not support fetch yet, but I’m hoping someone more familiar will corroborate this as true.
