Chapter 11: Siteless UIs
In the previous chapter, we saw how the SPA composition pattern can be used to combine multiple SPAs into one unified application. While this pattern is attractive due to a variety of business and technical factors, we've also drilled deep enough to observe its challenges.
A pattern that directly builds on top of the SPA composition is the creation of siteless UIs. In this pattern, analogies and ideas from serverless functions are applied to frontends. In the end, we'll get runtime-driven micro frontends, which offer a lot of advantages and flexibility.
In this chapter, we'll close our tour of the different micro frontend patterns by taking a deep dive into next-generation micro frontends with the siteless UI pattern.
We'll structure this chapter as follows:
- Basics of siteless UIs
- Advantages and disadvantages
- Comparing with serverless
- Creating a runtime
- Writing modules
This should help us to understand...
