Migrating from Monolith to Microfrontends

on YouTube ↗31m

" summary

Seller dashboards at bol.com split a monolith into domain‑based microfrontends that live in separate repositories, use Angular and TypeScript with a BFF layer and single sign‑on, and evolve toward framework‑agnostic StencilJS web components. The migration yields 20+ microfrontends, more than eight teams owning pieces, faster independent releases — roughly 5–10x production deploys for some flows — while costing extra work on shared libraries, UX consistency and caching/performance.
