Introducing Module Federation
Understand the main idea behind Module Federation and how it allows applications to expose and consume modules dynamically.
What is Module Federation?
Welcome! In this lesson, we'll dive into Module Federation, a powerful feature of Webpack that's key to building modern Micro Frontends.
It allows different JavaScript applications to share and consume code from each other dynamically at runtime.
The Monolith Problem
Traditionally, large web applications are built as a single, giant codebase – a monolith. This can lead to:
- Slow development cycles
- Difficulty scaling teams
- Tight coupling between parts
Module Federation helps overcome these challenges by enabling a more modular approach.
