Abstract: Micro frontend architecture effectively represents a paradigm shift in the enterprise web engineering landscape by managing the complexities and scalability concerns that are native to monolithic frontends. Micro frontends offer an architectural pattern that allows for effectively large-scale web applications to be divided into flexible, independently deployable modules that fundamentally change how enterprises can configure their development lifecycles. Autonomous teams can build, test, and deploy their modules, each serving distinct UI components in an independent and streamlined fashion. Micro frontends facilitate parallel development lifecycles through the methodologies used to define the interaction points, thus creating fewer dependency paths, which contribute to an overall reduction in time to value. Because the principles of micro frontend architecture are centered on module isolation, runtime integration, and build-time composition, they provide enterprises unparalleled flexibility to manage complex web applications that can possibly change during the lifecycle of the project. The implementation of micro frontends can include runtime federation or static (like integration approaches that offer benefits to a variety of enterprises. Conclusively, micro frontends benefit organizations by providing easier code maintenance, better fault isolation, and better performance across geographically distributed teams. The mindset shift required to adopt micro frontends will help enterprises remain competitive as they go on with their digital transformations and will enable building more sophisticated, scalable, maintainable, resilient web applications that have the ability to evolve with the business or change if needed from a technology perspective.
