Building Microfrontend Architecture for Scale with JS
summary
Migration narrative from a 2.5M‑line Django monolith to a microfrontend ecosystem that now spans 46 microservices and roughly 2.5M → 7M LOC. Frontends run as independent React + Redux apps, backends stay as Django services communicating over REST/AMQP with shared JWT auth; testing uses Cypress and mocked APIs. Resulting workflows yield PR deployable within an hour instead of weeks, and per‑customer isolated frontends (examples: MIT, Georgia Tech) enable themeable, independently deployable instances.
