Microfrontends architectures

speakerdeck:nickbalestra
slides:none on file

OpenTable explains a working microfrontend system called OpenComponents: a runtime OpenComponents registry serves immutable components (with optional serverless back ends) to 25 microsites across ~50 engineers and >20M monthly users, letting teams publish via the oc CLI and consume with a small client library. Components support server-side and client-side rendering, per-component templates for build/render, and a Chrome extension for live testing; the stack runs in production at OpenTable and is open source.
