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).

Summary

In this chapter, you learned how to compose multiple SPAs into one coherent web application. You saw that user interaction is meant to be quite high, however, to achieve a great user experience, a lot of technical challenges need to be tackled.

By applying the communication patterns you learned in this chapter, you can ensure loose coupling. This helps your application to scale as you go. In the end, the goal is always to exchange only the minimum amount necessary for integration.

In the next chapter, we take this pattern a bit further and create a system that mirrors serverless functions just for composing the UI. This should give us a system that is both very flexible and simple to develop while maintaining a great, coherent user experience.
