Abstract

In the context of backend development, adopting microservices has brought new challenges to frontend integration, leading to the development of microfrontends. Monolithic frontends go against the principles of microservices specialization, requiring a more modular approach. This study aims to characterize the adoption of micro frontends within microservices. To achieve this, a systematic mapping was conducted across six databases, selecting 32 articles that identified 11 tools for managing applications with micro frontends. The study discusses the increase in complexity and the contexts and conditions for applying micro frontend implementation models. As a contribution, this study outlines the main paths for adopting micro frontends within a microservices architecture, providing valuable insights for software engineering and promoting better integration between the backend and front end. Additionally, it describes the characteristics of micro frontends and the advantages and disadvantages of their adoption, highlighting security concerns, their impact on team collaboration, and how they may affect the organizational structure and team development processes.
