Micro Frontends with Angular and Native Federation | by Manfred Steyer | Feb, 2025 | Angular Blog

Enterprise-scale software systems are often implemented by several cross-functional teams. To enable such teams to provide new features efficiently, it is desirable to minimize the need for coordination between them. This calls for a modularization that verticalizes the system into low-coupled areas individual teams can take care of. There are several possibilities for implementing such high-level modules (also called verticals). For instance, they can be implemented using a respective folder structure or in the form of several libraries in a Monorepo. Micro Frontends go one step further and designate a separate application for each vertical. This architectural style promises several advantages, such as a high amount of team autonomy, but it also comes with numerous challenges.
