HI, IT'S ME

Companies have legacy code

in production

Monolith

Highly coupled code

Mix of layers

Initial version

<webapps/>                    are evolving

and we need to be up-to-date

The Micro * Way

how easy is to upgrade your app?

microservices, microframeworks, micro-whatever

ROUTING SOLUTION

Server-side Routing

Client-side Routing

...
import('./new-page.component')
  .then(({ default: NewPageComponent }) => {
    // Logic to add
    // your experimental feature
  });
  .catch(e => 
    console.log(`
Error loading the component ${e}
    `)
  );
...

import('in-load-time')

Feature Toggle Service

let asyncModule;

if (isFeatureFlagTurnedOn('new-page')) {
  asyncModule = import(
    /* webpackChunkName: "new-page" */
    './new-page'
  );
} else {
  asyncModule = import(
    /* webpackChunkName: "old-page" */
    './old-page'
  );
}

Monorepos 

...can be a good solution

Organized

Traceability

Cross-project

Dependencies

Why monorepos

Angular Workspaces

...can be a good solution

yarn affected:build --base=master
// Running affected only
// E2E Tests
yarn affected:test --base=master
yarn affected:e2e --base=master
// Unit Tests
// Build

This can potentially

create new problems

Main goal

Easy to deploy

Release early

   Release often

ROUTING SOLUTION

stack #1

stack #2

What if your

API goes down?

What if your

API have

optional attributes?

What if your

types are not

assertive?

// GET api/endpoint/1234

{
  "location": [...],
}
type ApiEndpointResponse = {
  location?: Array<...>;
  listing?: {
    [k: string]: | string
                 | boolean
                 | number;
  } 
};
// GET api/endpoint/1234

{
  "location": [...],
  "listing": {...}
}

<ngx-recap/>

Think in architecture

Start with small steps

Migration plan

Define routing solution

Monorepos can help

Thank you
