Micro-Frontend Platform Migration
Broke a React monolith into independently deployable micro-frontends across 4 teams.
Overview
Led the migration of a production monolith to a micro-frontend architecture on Webpack 5 Module Federation across 4 product teams, cutting deployment complexity by 40%. Built a CLI that scaffolds a new micro-frontend (port registration, boilerplate and Docker Compose) in under 30 seconds, taking new-team onboarding from 2 days to 15 minutes.
Problem → built → result
- Problem
- Four product teams shipping from one React monolith.
- Built
- Module Federation split, plus a CLI that scaffolds a new app in 30 seconds.
- Result
- Onboarding 2 days → 15 min · −40% deploy complexity
What I built
- Split a production monolith into independently deployable micro-frontends on Webpack 5 Module Federation, with clear code ownership across 4 product teams
- Built a CLI for scaffolding, port registration and Docker Compose wiring: new-team setup dropped from 2 days to 15 minutes
- Cut deployment complexity by 40% by letting each team ship on its own
- Docker containerization per micro-frontend so each team owns its deployment
