This section contains practical guides and best practices for building production-ready micro-frontend applications with qiankun. These guides are based on real-world experience and common challenges faced when implementing micro-frontend architectures.
Building micro-frontends requires careful consideration of various aspects including architecture design, performance optimization, development workflow, and deployment strategies. These guides will help you avoid common pitfalls and implement robust solutions.
Learn how to prevent CSS conflicts between micro applications and implement effective style isolation strategies.
What you'll learn:
Optimize your micro-frontend applications for better load times and runtime performance.
What you'll learn:
Implement robust error handling and recovery mechanisms for micro-frontend applications.
What you'll learn:
Master debugging techniques and development workflows for micro-frontend applications.
What you'll learn:

A typical e-commerce platform might be structured as:
An enterprise dashboard might include:
Problem: Creating too many micro applications for small features.
Solution: Start with a monolith and extract micro applications when teams or domains naturally separate.
Problem: Micro applications sharing dependencies causing version conflicts.
Solution: Use proper bundling strategies and consider module federation for shared libraries.
Problem: Multiple micro applications loading simultaneously causing performance degradation.
Solution: Implement lazy loading, proper caching, and resource optimization.
Problem: Testing micro applications in isolation doesn't catch integration issues.
Solution: Implement comprehensive integration testing alongside unit tests.
