Evolution of the Web

I took upon myself a challenge to post 6 blog posts covering Frontend architectures from plain JS-less webpages to SSR, BFFs, micro-frontends and so on!

The motivation - my current org has a big MFE platform and it was too overwhelming to start with. Thus, I took it on me to teach myself! 👇

Refer them here in order:

Part 1 - When the Web Learned Structure: MVC

Part 2 - Taming UI Complexity: How MVVM Made the View Less Dumb

Part 3 - The SPA Revolution: When JavaScript Took Over the Browser

Part 4 - Why One Backend Wasn’t Enough: The Rise of BFF

Part 5 - Rendering Is a Spectrum: From CSR to RSCs

Part 6(1) - When Frontends Became Distributed Systems: Enter Micro Frontends
Part 6(2) - When Frontends Became Distributed Systems: Enter Micro Frontends

If you've reached till the end, first of all, hope you had fun and got to learn a thing or two from this! I would really appreciate if you would put a suggestion in the comments on what i could improve or if you found any logical discrepancies.

Cheers!👋
