There are always middle grounds to be explored. The way I see it, 80% of a "codebase" would be data and 20%, code.

Both worlds can be cleanly composed. For instance, for backend development, it's common to define an array (data) of middleware (code).

At a smaller scale, this is already a reality in the Clojure ecosystem - most sql is data (honeysql library), and most html is data (Hiccup library).
