Development Approaches for Micro Frontends
Teams can adopt various development approaches when working with Micro Frontends, depending on organizational structure, project requirements, and team dynamics:
- Feature Teams:
- The feature team is a cross-functional team comprising of members who work together on the development of the end-to-end features along with the user stories.
- The architecture will be following the Feature Team structure whereby a feature team will manage one or more Micro Frontend modules so as to provide seamless user experience across different feature components
- Component Teams:
- Team members dedicate time to coming up with classes written in HTML/eCSS and that can be reused by most Micro Frontends.
- Component teams work to eliminate code replication, ensure adherence to a common design language, and create well-organized and up-to-date projects through their development of standardized UI components and design patterns.
- Cross-Functional Teams:
- Teams are cross-functional and support them is provided by the members who have their gathered and comprehensive skills and expertise as developers of the front-end, backend, designers and testers.
Rapid iterations and frequent releases are enabled by continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) pipelines that condense development workflows and reduce human participation, with proven results in the production of defect-free solutions. The CI/CD pipelines greatly simplify the build, test, and deployment procedures eliminating significant manual overhead and leading to bigger efficiencies.
What are Micro Frontends?
Among the more widely accepted frameworks at the moment, there is a concept known to be a Micro Frontend. The technique extracts the ideas from microservice architecture in the backend portion and implements them in the front end by breaking down the irrelevant large frontend applications into more manageable self-sufficient components.
