Overview of this book

Micro frontend is a web architecture for frontend development borrowed from the idea of microservices in software development, where each module of the frontend is developed and shipped in isolation to avoid complexity and a single point of failure for your frontend. Complete with hands-on tutorials, projects, and self-assessment questions, this easy-to-follow guide will take you through the patterns available for implementing a micro frontend solution. You’ll learn about micro frontends in general, the different architecture styles and their areas of use, how to prepare teams for the change to micro frontends, as well as how to adjust the UI design for scalability. Starting with the simplest variants of micro frontend architectures, the book progresses from static approaches to fully dynamic solutions that allow maximum scalability with faster release cycles. In the concluding chapters, you'll reinforce the knowledge you’ve gained by working on different case studies relating to micro frontends. By the end of this book, you'll be able to decide if and how micro frontends should be implemented to achieve scalability for your user interface (UI).

Chapter 10: SPA Composition

In the previous chapters, we had a glimpse of how micro frontends can be composed just using the browser without any active backend support. Most of the time, this way becomes really interesting with increased user interactivity.

Today, single-page applications (SPA) offer this tool-like kind of application that many experiences target. Combining multiple components from standard SPA frameworks such as Angular or React is described with the SPA composition pattern.

The key factor for a SPA is that routing is not done on the server, but rather in the frontend. Routing in JavaScript requires techniques such as taking the URL's hash or controlling the history API of HTML5. Then older features such as AJAX can be used to lazy load the content that should be presented on a page.

In this chapter, we cover the pattern of SPA composition, which allows different SPA frameworks to be contained in the same application.
