getting started with module federation

module federation is a feature introduced in webpack 5 that allows you to share code between different applications at runtime. this is particularly useful in micro-frontend architectures, where you want to build and deploy parts of a web application independently.

in this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps to set up module federation using two simple react applications. we'll create a host application that loads a remote application and displays its component.

prerequisites

- basic understanding of javascript and react
- node.js and npm installed on your machine

step 1: set up your projects

1. **create the host application**

open your terminal and run the following commands:



2. **create the remote application**

open a new terminal and run:



step 2: adding webpack and module federation plugin

we need to add webpack and the module federation plugin to both applications.

1. **install webpack and module federation plugin**

navigate to both `host-app` and `remote-app` directories and run:



2. **eject the create react app**

you need to eject your app to customize the webpack configuration. do this for both applications:



this will expose the webpack configuration files.

step 3: configure the remote application

1. **edit `webpack.config.js` in the `remote-app`**

add module federation configuration:



2. **create a button component**

create a new file `src/button.js` in the `remote-app` directory:



3. **update `src/index.js`**

ensure the `index.js` file is correctly set up:



step 4: configure the host application

1. **edit `webpack.config.js` in the `host-app`**

add module federation configuration:



2. **update `src/app.js`**

modify the `app.js` file in the `host-app` to use the remote button component:



step 5: run the applications

1. **start the remote application**

navigate to the `remote-app` directory and start the appli ...
