We already talked about Micro Frontends: Why? As web applications grow in complexity, maintaining a consistent tech stack becomes crucial for efficiency and scalability. If you have multiple projects using different frameworks, like Angular and React, unifying them can seem daunting. However, Micro Frontends offer a modern solution to this challenge, allowing you to integrate diverse projects seamlessly. Here’s how you can leverage Micro Frontends to unify your Angular and React projects. ...

Micro frontends is an architectural pattern for building web applications as a composition of loosely coupled, independently deployable frontend modules. It extends the principles of microservices to the frontend, allowing teams to develop, deploy, and scale parts of the user interface independently. In essence, micro frontends break down a large, monolithic frontend application into smaller, more manageable pieces, each with its own technology stack, development team, and deployment pipeline. Key characteristics of micro frontends Modularity: Micro frontends promote modularity by dividing the user interface into smaller, self-contained units called micro frontends. Each micro frontend represents a cohesive set of features or functionality, allowing teams to focus on developing and maintaining specific parts of the application. ...

Metadata has long been part of Twitter applications. Viewing conversation threads or learning about a user’s location has changed how users interact with content and have provided third party app developers with great opportunities to innovate on Twitter’s platform. Ryan Sarver, Twitter’s director of platform, announced today at Chirp, the Twitter developer conference, that annotations can now be added to tweets. In other words, any kind of metadata can be added to any tweet; it’s up to developers to decide what kinds of apps they build to showcase what kinds of metadata. ...
