Explore a conference talk that delves into scaling applications without relying on microfrontends. Learn about the concept of a "glorious monolith" and its advantages over traditional monolithic structures and microfrontend architectures. Discover techniques for managing complexity, including module isolation, code separation, and data encapsulation. Gain insights into implementing one-way imports, creating effective public APIs, and isolating styles using CSS modules. Understand the importance of runtime considerations and how to break code into manageable modules. The talk also covers feature-sliced design and provides a comprehensive summary of strategies for scaling applications while maintaining a cohesive codebase.
