But What About the UI?
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
Ever since developers started breaking applications into services, be it in the era of SOA or more recently with microservices, they’ve struggled to incorporate user interfaces into their decoupled, distributed architectures.
We’ve all seen frontends versioned separately with tight coupling to dependent services, breaking cohesion. The rise of Backend-For-Frontend is real and so is the emerge of micro frontends. We all talk about composition, yet so many projects fail to implement actual composition. The result seem to be some kind of compromise proving hard to scale when multiple teams are involved - causing lock-step deployment, latency, bottlenecks and coordination issues.
What if you could find a viable solution that allowed you to scale development, keep distribution and cohesion and also provide composition of user interfaces?
This talk explores the different patterns available, and attempts to pinpoint their pros and cons, effectively serving as guidance to implementing proper composition. Thomas will go beyond the simple “Hello World” example that always seems to work, and you’ll learn patterns in modelling and designing that can actually be employed for composition.
