    A new framework for building micro-frontends with Chris Fryer

    “We adopted micro-frontends… and suddenly authentication became everyone’s problem.” That sentence alone has probably cost teams months of rework, endless Slack threads, and architecture diagrams that aged badly after the first production incident. In the latest episode of Micro-Frontends in the Trenches, I sit down with Chris Fryer to unpack the realities behind his #microfrontends Framework, the evolving Module Federation ecosystem, and much more ☢️ WARNING: This is not a theoretical conversation. Listen to the episode and let me know what challenged your perspective the most.

    Migrating to micro-frontends with Boris Besemer from Vercel

    In this episode, I’m joined by Boris Besemer from Vercel to unpack what it really takes to start a migration to micro-frontends without turning it into a never-ending transformation. We focus on the very first steps teams should take: how to identify the right starting point and how to avoid the most common early mistakes that slow teams down or create unnecessary complexity. A big part of the conversation explores how the Vercel platform can simplify platform engineering during a migration. We discuss how tooling, deployment workflows, preview environments, and developer experience can reduce cognitive load while multiple teams progressively move toward a micro-frontend architecture.

    Platform Engineering for Micro-Frontends with Jeremy Colin

    In this episode of Micro-Frontends in the Trenches, I talk with Jeremy Colin (ex-Zalando) about the journey that led to Tailor.js and later Mosaic, two pioneering frameworks that shaped how micro-frontends are built at scale.Jeremy shares the technical challenges, trade-offs, and lessons learned while building these platforms, and why platform engineering is essential for making micro-frontends practical in real-world organizations.We dive into:- The story behind Tailor.js and its role in Zalando’s architecture.- How Mosaic evolved and why it mattered.- The hidden complexities of adopting micro-frontends.- Why platform engineering is key to simplifying and sustaining the practice.I highly encourage all of you to listen to this episode that is part of the micro-frontend history!
