Micro Frontends assess methods-and-patterns

We see many benefits in Microservices especially in large teams but often this architecture does not involve the user interface. Instead, you might end up maintaining a frontend monolith. With Micro Frontends you enable your frontend developers to gain the same benefits that we have grown accustomed to in a Microservice architecture: Decoupled components, which are developed and deployed by independent teams. But what sounds reasonable comes with challenges. Integrating different Frontends on the client- or server-side can be tricky, as well as keeping the overall User Experience consistent.

Despite the challenges, Micro Frontends help us to develop large applications across multiple teams. Developers can work more independently without having too much trouble maintaining a large codebase. Being able to update oder replace Frontend libraries in some parts of the application is yet another benefit in the fast-moving world of frontend development.
