Organization and methodologies
At Contentsquare we are using the agile methodology (sprint, scrum master…)
Thanks to this methodology, we are organized within 13 squads. The squads are composed of 1 Project Manager, 1 Technical Project Manager, 1 Technical Expert, 1 Team Leader and approximately 4 or 5 developers. Depending on the squad, it could be more oriented back end or front end.
Projects and tech challenges
Micro front end
At Contentsquare, with half a million lines of code in our AngularJS/Angular hybrid application, over 40 frontend developers and big technical and product challenges to overcome, the migration to a micro-frontend architecture was a necessity.
We consequently conducted several workshops before defining our target and ideal vision. Our main concerns were performance, scalability and interactions between modules.
As we wanted to control the migration of one module after another and the performance at the same time, two pitfalls had to be addressed: The impact on the build process locally and in the continuous integration tool. Dependency and version management.
Migration from one module to another should be simple. Once you have the mechanism for the first one, you can replicate it for the others; and every improvement made to one will benefit all. So using a new single repository for all our micro-frontends was our first choice. It helped to control the two pitfalls.
Secondly, the integration of a micro-frontend into the legacy shell container had to be as simple as possible. Our second key choice was to rely on Web Components. It allows you to create custom elements in the DOM, to isolate the CSS in the shadow DOM and, by development, load it lazily.
Contentsquare is not the first company to rely on the Web Components strategy to implement micro-frontends. While the migration plan seems simple, implementing it is a long race, a bit like a marathon, because you want to keep releasing features while migrating. So perfect alignment between the product team and our R&D is an ongoing effort.
