nx VS single-spa

With Nx, you can use the list of presets, but it is hardcoded. There is some flexibility for each with some options, but not enough to generate a more advanced workspace.

One notable feature is the ability to remember selected tabs. When you select a specific tab on a page, all other tabs on the page with the same name will also be selected. This selection will persist during your next visit to nx.dev.

Hono does have a template application for Vercel, but in my case, my requirements were different (aren't they always 😅). I was working in a monorepo (using nx) because I wanted to manage my libs, tests, and examples all together in a single place, instead of having different repos.

Recently, My coworker is using Nx to automate his workflow, including automated release using semantic version. I found this method quite useful, so I want to re-implement on single GitHub repositories (without Nx).

I started a discussion on GitHub concerning that subject: Design Nx Plugin Project Crystal

Nx

We are looking for companies to partner with on the Analog project to support development of the project. Thanks to Snyder Technologies for being an early adopter and promoter of Analog, Nx for joining us as a sponsor, House of Angular, and many other backers of the project.

Additionally, thank you to all our community launch partners across the frontend ecosystem for helping us bring Storybook 8 to the world! Thanks to Chromatic, Figma, ViteConf, Omlet, DivRiots, story.to.design, StackBlitz, UXpin, Nx, Mock Service Worker, Anima, Zeplin, zeroheight, kickstartDS, and Kendo UI.

At JupiterOne, we've made a significant transition from a monolithic frontend to a distributed frontend architecture using microfrontends, powered by (single-spa-react)[https://single-spa.js.org/]. This architectural shift has brought many benefits, such as lazy loading sections of the app and accelerating our development cycle. However, like any significant change, it has also come with its set of challenges.

Single-SPA Framework - One of the most popular choices. It has a large community behind it and offers robust routing and lifecycle management for microapps. Ref - https://single-spa.js.org/

Joel Denning is the visionary behind single-spa, boasting profound insights into the true mechanics of the web and is, in my view, a pioneer in micro frontend architecture. I highly recommend checking the single-spa website and his YouTube channel. While the videos might appear dated at first glance, rest assured, Joel is ahead of his time, and the content remains incredibly relevant today.

You got me curious and I found that single spa is something new to me - if I read https://github.com/single-spa/single-spa then I reckon you can use Svelte(Kit) in such framework - like you can use angular etc

I’ve actually done that “web components as the interoperability layer”!

It was this old angular 1.8 app with new features being written in angular-hybrid-ized angular 8. Ripping out angular-hybrid and separating the angular 1.8 routes from the modern angular routes was difficult, but now they were totally separate.

The only thing linking them together was an object with some RXJS streams in it for state, and a little in-house wrapper “app” who just loaded one component or another depending on the URL and a hash of routes for config. (I’d probably use SingleSPA [1] now. Same thing really.)

We could deploy them separately since the build just ends up being another JS file somewhere that just gets included with a script tag at runtime. No version bumping! No big mega build!

We started replacing the remaining “old” routes 1 by 1 with a “new” counter part. That was the easiest part, and went at a pace devs were comfortable with (fast enough) and business folk could tolerate. (modular enough to not HAVE to be done all at once)

Last I checked, the angular 1.8 stuff is gone years ago. :)

Module Federation is not the unique solution, for example single-spa

You may want to look into using single-spa to run Vue 2 and Vue 3 side by side while you're migrating. Once your app is fully converted, you can stop using single-spa

Single-SPA and module federation are potent tools for building scalable micro-frontends. Single-spa provides a framework for building a modular front-end application. It allows lazy loading of micro-frontends, which helps improve the application's performance. In contrast, module federation enables communication and dependency sharing between different micro-frontends. It reduces code duplication, which can help with scaling an application.
