Moving at the Speed of Thought
summary
Claims that a federated microfrontend workflow can deploy under a second by combining Module Federation with cloud caching and incremental uploads; demonstrates a live demo where each build creates per-build immutable versions that are globally addressable and monitored (Sentry/analytics) so canarying and automatic rollback work. Recommends Nx / Turborepo / Bazel style centralized caches, faster builders like Rspack/webpack Rust ports, and treating deployments like npm packages rather than ad hoc ZIP uploads. Incremental uploads and artifact versioning are the key mechanics.
