Description
Unleash Agility and Scale with Micro Frontend Architecture.
Key Features
● Gain a solid understanding of micro frontend principles, patterns, and benefits.
● Explore integration strategies with real-world examples and practical guidance.
● Discover best practices for adoption, testing, deployment, and long-term scalability.
Book Description
As modern web applications grow in complexity, micro frontend architecture offers a scalable, modular approach that helps teams work independently, accelerate delivery, and maintain long-term flexibility. Micro Frontends Architecture for Scalable Applicationsprovides a comprehensive, hands-on guide to implementing micro frontends effectively in real-world projects.
The book starts by defining frontend and backend development, exploring what is considered a valuable architecture, and introducing various frontend architecture patterns.
Next, it dives into micro frontends and concepts like Domain-Driven Design, Decentralized Governance, and Independent Deployments. It explains how these principles enable highly observable (easy-to-monitor) micro frontends and covers in-depth discussions on integration strategies, their advantages and disadvantages.
Communication and routing are thoroughly explored, including Container Applications, State Management, and Cross-Application Communication. The book also addresses UI/UX considerations and how micro frontends interact with varying backend patterns.
The final part focuses on best practices for testing (unit, integration, and end-to-end), deployment strategies, and essential security measures. It concludes with a real-world case study and insights into the future of micro frontends—highlighting emerging trends, evolving architectures, and the growing impact of artificial intelligence.
What you will learn
● Design scalable frontend architectures using modular principles.
● Choose and apply the right integration strategy per use case.
● Build CI/CD pipelines optimized for micro frontend deployments.
● Handle routing, shared state, and communication across applications.
● Ensure UI/UX consistency with design systems in distributed teams.
● Explore how AI and emerging trends impact frontend architectures.
Who is this book for?
This book is ideal for intermediate to advanced frontend developers, tech leads, architects, and students seeking to implement micro frontend architecture, build scalable applications, and leverage modern CI/CD pipelines. Familiarity with JavaScript, frontend frameworks (like React or Angular), and basic DevOps concepts is recommended.
