Β Modular
Scaled Web Engineering. Where libraries and micro-frontends coexist together and tooling is a first-class citizen.
modular
is a collection of tools and guidance to enable micro-frontend
development at scale. It is derived from work at JP Morgan to enable development
in large monorepositories owned by many teams.
It provides a CLI to:
- Scaffold new micro-frontends and libraries from scratch
- Provide ready-to-use, opinionated test, lint and build configurations for micro-frontends and libraries
- Provide tooling to incrementally and selectively run operations on monorepositories at scale
Pre-requisites
See the compatibility page.
Getting Started
yarn create modular-react-app my-new-modular-project [--verbose] [--prefer-offline] [--repo]

This also creates a workspace named 'app' which is a new modular app written in TypeScript.
It supports three flags:
--verbose
