Back in 2015, I was designing my first
#microfrontends implementation.
There were no best practices, no conference talks, no blog posts just trial, error, and a lot of late nights figuring things out. I had to make architectural decisions with no references, and every mistake was a lesson learned the hard way.
One of the biggest challenges?
There was no shared vocabulary.
I had to define patterns, heuristics, and architectural principles from scratch—concepts that I’ve refined over the years by working with hundreds of teams and speaking with developers and organizations worldwide.
Today, those patterns, vocabulary, and approaches are embraced worldwide by the community and have become recognized standards in micro-frontends architecture.
But while the ecosystem has evolved, many teams still struggle with the same fundamental challenges I faced back then:
✅ Optimising for fast flow over reusability at all cost
✅ Striking the right balance between autonomy and governance
✅ Lessons from large-scale implementations—what worked (and what didn’t)
At
#QConLondon, I’ll be sharing the most common pitfalls and the practical solutions that have emerged from real-world implementations. If you’re attending and want to exchange war stories—or if you're navigating your own micro-frontends journey—let’s connect!
What’s been your biggest challenge with micro-frontends so far?
