  We review the fundamental ideas of quantizing a theory on a Light Front
including the Hamiltonian approach to the problem of bound states on the Light
Front and the limiting transition from formulating a theory in Lorentzian
coordinates (where the quantization occurs on spacelike hyperplanes) to the
theory on the Light Front, which demonstrates the equivalence of these variants
of the theory. We describe attempts to find such a form of the limiting
transition for gauge theories on the Wilson lattice.
