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 11: Siteless UIs

In the previous chapter, we saw how the SPA composition pattern can be used to combine multiple SPAs into one unified application. While this pattern is attractive due to a variety of business and technical factors, we've also drilled deep enough to observe its challenges.

A pattern that directly builds on top of the SPA composition is the creation of siteless UIs. In this pattern, analogies and ideas from serverless functions are applied to frontends. In the end, we'll get runtime-driven micro frontends, which offer a lot of advantages and flexibility.

In this chapter, we'll close our tour of the different micro frontend patterns by taking a deep dive into next-generation micro frontends with the siteless UI pattern.

We'll structure this chapter as follows:

  • Basics of siteless UIs
  • Advantages and disadvantages
  • Comparing with serverless
  • Creating a runtime
  • Writing modules

This should help us to understand...
