What are the advantages and disadvantages of building a monolithic application for a specific task?

Advantages of monolithic application:

• Simplicity of development and deployment: all code in one project.
• Easier to debug and test, as all components are together.
• Less overhead for communication between services.
• Suitable for small and medium projects with limited scaling requirements.

Disadvantages:

• Difficulty in scaling individual parts of the application.
• As the code grows, it becomes hard to maintain and develop due to high coupling.
• Risk that an error in one module will affect the entire application.
• Difficult team collaboration with a large number of developers.

Conclusion: monolith is suitable for simple tasks and small teams, but as the project grows, it can become a bottleneck.
