The Art of Micro Frontends

Overview of this book

Micro frontend is a web architecture for frontend development borrowed from the idea of microservices in software development, where each module of the frontend is developed and shipped in isolation to avoid complexity and a single point of failure for your frontend. Complete with hands-on tutorials, projects, and self-assessment questions, this easy-to-follow guide will take you through the patterns available for implementing a micro frontend solution. You’ll learn about micro frontends in general, the different architecture styles and their areas of use, how to prepare teams for the change to micro frontends, as well as how to adjust the UI design for scalability. Starting with the simplest variants of micro frontend architectures, the book progresses from static approaches to fully dynamic solutions that allow maximum scalability with faster release cycles. In the concluding chapters, you'll reinforce the knowledge you’ve gained by working on different case studies relating to micro frontends. By the end of this book, you'll be able to decide if and how micro frontends should be implemented to achieve scalability for your user interface (UI).

Security

Before we even start talking about potential vulnerabilities, we need to examine closely that there are two extremes when talking about micro frontends:

  • Centrally provided cross-cutting concerns including user management
  • Full isolation where each module is responsible for its own user management

Both extremes come with their own advantages and disadvantages. As already seen, finding the right balance is key for a successful implementation. There is no silver bullet – a lot depends on the boundary conditions set by the project.

By far the biggest challenge regarding security management can be found in the execution of potentially untrusted code. Since code is no longer centrally created and maintained, the likelihood of unwanted snippets entering the system increases drastically. Consequently, further boundaries and processes are required to avoid vulnerabilities.

Let's dissect the two options for user management, as well as the challenge...
