* When should you define an HTML template rather than define a graphical component?
- Un template HTML ne peut contenir de logique, il ne permettra donc

- La différence entre la classe `AppRsetObject` et la classe `AppObject` est que
- les instances de la premières sont séléctionnées pour une requête et un "result
