About this episode
The episode discusses micro frontends, their use cases, and explores five different patterns along with their trade-offs.
The episode is inspired by research I conducted a few years ago in which I interviewed hundreds of other senior engineers and architects building web applications at scale. I begin by introducing the concept of micro frontends and discussing when to use them versus relying on more straightforward and reliable techniques. In the second part of the episode, we cover five different micro frontend patterns and their trade-offs. Enjoy!
