Micro-Frontends: Scalability or Technical Debt?
An engineering deep dive into module federation, boundary limits, and when distributing your frontend architecture actually makes sense.
Detailed technical breakdown of module federation and multi-zone Next.js deployments. Micro-frontends enable independent deployment and team autonomy, but they introduce complexity in shared state management, cross-app communication, and bundle duplication. This analysis covers when the trade-offs are worth it.
