Summary
In this chapter, you learned about your first pattern to realize large-scale micro frontend solutions. Using a web approach, you can now go ahead and actually fuse different, more fine-grained web servers together.
On the outside, this feels like a single web server. The techniques are also not very exotic. By using standard proxies, links, and <iframe>
elements, we can create a quite sound solution in no time.
The main advantage of the web approach is also its biggest drawback. The system is so simple that it can be composed arbitrarily. Therefore, it is quite difficult to ensure a working system.
In the next chapter, we will look at a more complicated enhancement of this pattern in the form of server-side composition.
