MICROFRONTENDS SHOULD BE YOUR LAST RESORT
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
Microfrontends (MFEs) are often touted as a solution for large, complex front-end applications, but they should be a last resort. While MFEs can offer benefits like team independence and modularity, they also introduce complexities like increased deployment overhead and a distributed monolith if not implemented correctly. Before adopting MFEs, prioritize refactoring your codebase and try starting with a modular monolith first.
