Micro frontend frameworks in 2024

Micro Frontends are becoming an increasingly popular approach for building modern web applications. As opposed to building a monolithic app, micro frontends allow you to break down an app into smaller, independent pieces that can each be developed, deployed, and scaled separately.

This modular architecture brings a lot of benefits - easier maintenance, better team collaboration, faster iteration, and improved resilience. As more teams adopt this approach, the tools and frameworks ecosystem around micro frontends continues to grow.

Here are some of the most promising micro frontend frameworks to watch for in 2024:

  • Single-SPA Framework - One of the most popular choices. It has a large community behind it and offers robust routing and lifecycle management for microapps.

  • Piral Framework - Focused on developer experience with features like a visual UI editor, live previews and hot module replacement.

  • Luigi Framework - A very lightweight framework built by the folks at SAP.

  • OpenComponents Framework - Strong focus on componentization and making components reusable across different microapps.

  • Mosaic Framework - Built by BigCommerce. Designed specifically for ecommerce use cases. Comes with pre-built config and best practices.

Micro Frontends offers a promising approach to modern web development, enabling teams to build scalable, maintainable applications. As we explore frameworks like Single-SPA and Qian Kun, let's not forget the importance of standardized communication protocols between micro frontends. Prioritizing interoperability ensures seamless integration and future-proofing for evolving applications. 🚀
