Original: Break Up Your React App: Micro-Frontends with Next.js 🧩

Short summary

This article demonstrates how to implement micro-frontends in Next.js using Webpack Module Federation, splitting a monolithic React app into independently deployable host and remote applications. It provides code examples for configuring a remote app to expose components and a host app to dynamically import them. The approach enables teams to deploy UI features autonomously — e.g., a Billing team shipping updates five times daily without touching the core repository.

  • Use Webpack Module Federation to split Next.js apps into host and remote micro-frontends
  • Remote apps expose components via next.config.js; host apps dynamically import them at runtime
  • Teams gain deployment autonomy, isolated testing, and fault tolerance
