I am working to create a web app. Simultaneously I am also developing a REST web service that will use the same codebase…What I want to know is, can I make the same codebase on a server function as base for both the web app and the web service. (In the web app a user can log in and perform operations while the web service is like an API).

Or do I need to keep 2 distinct code bases for the web app and the web service?

Also, I want the same web app to act as both producer and consumer of the web services…Is this possible?

    Yes you can. Technical a REST API is the same thing as the server side of a web application.

    But if your REST API is accessed by third parties you might want to have a different versioning strategy then for your web app, so for anything of serious size I would probably separate those.

    Sorry can’t speak about the producer/consumer part of the question. Don’t understand that part of the question.
