Micro-frontends to the rescue!

This session tells the story of how we solved the problem using micro-frontends to integrate components between multiple applications, meeting industry regulations and improving productivity of our teams.

In this talk about our unique take on the benefits of micro-frontends we aim to give developers one more tool in their toolbelt to work constructively within these constraints to create great applications.

We cover the following topics in the format of both business/functional explanations and a live coding demo …
- Background to the problem and how it impacts our productivity and creativity
- Different technical options we investigated to arrive at the solution
- Impediments we met along the way
- A coding demo to show how the integration is achieved using Vue.js and Single-SPA micro frontend framework

Audience:
Content is aimed primarily at developers and architects to show how micro frontends can solve real issues. More generally, the following groups should be interested in the content:
- Anyone who wants to integrate product features between a suite of products
- Developers working in regulated environments (e.g. Pharma, aerospace)
- Micro frontend fans
- Micro frontend sceptics

Hello. I’m Nikola and I'm an experienced software architect. I’m motivated by big problems, and if you’ve got some, I can help solve them.

I consider myself a problem solver, and an active thinker. Most of my time I am defining, designing, and implementing highly secure, highly available applications in cloud environments. I have been organizing the build process, getting user and customer feedback, and connecting the pieces into magnificent software solutions.

I love working with people to do things bigger than I could accomplish alone. Currently, I am working within the Sanofi IADC as a Cloud Software Architect. I’m passionate, expressive, a multi-talented developer with a natural ability to entertain and inspire.

Earlier, I worked as a Managing Officer | Principal Software Architect in Movilitas. I trained and led an amazing team of developers. Together we built a successful SaaS solution for the supply chain domain Movilitas.Cloud.
