Covering more micro frontends and styled-components v5, the second episode of the Tech Red Pill video podcast is here!

I'm happy to announce that the second episode of Tech Red Pill is here!

Check out our last episode here: Micro Frontends: a deep dive into the latest industry trend.

If you are unfamiliar, we cover a variety of tech-related topics on this weekly video podcast, mostly focused around the latest tech news and our opinions from a professional standpoint.

In this episode we review a micro-frontends practical implementation and provide our further thoughts in this issue; however, the majority of the video is dedicated to a thorough review of the upcoming styled-components v5, and some longstanding issues with the library in terms of philosophy and future direction.

Happy coding!

Our AI agent was running 10-20 seconds slower than it should, impacting both our own developers and our early adopters. See how I used Sentry Profiling to fix it in record time.

Thanks for the shout out guys! I haven't been able to finish it yet, really interested to hear your thoughts on styled-components v5!

Complete agreement, BTW, for a microfrontend to have a practical use they have to be separated out into separate repos, with separate package.jsons.

I almost feel like web components are a necessary piece of the microfrontend puzzle... Admittedly that's only because that's how I'm comfortable building them, so I might have to dig into other implementations to overcome my own biases.

It's a new(ish) concept, so I think we're going to have a lot of back and forth in the community on the "best" way to build them and even what the core concepts are for years (if it survives haha!)

I guess we'll have to see how that goes. 😁
