Design Thinking

  What is Design Thinking (DT)? Design thinking is a non-linear, iterative process that teams use to understand users, challenge assumptions, redefine problems and create innovative solutions to prototype and test. It is most useful to tackle ill-defined or unknown problems and involves five phases: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test.   Importance of Design Thinking “Design thinking is a human-centered approach to innovation that draws from the designer's toolkit to integrate the needs of people, the possibilities of technology, and the requirements for business success.” - Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO Design thinking  fosters innovation .

  What are Micro Frontends? The term  Micro Frontends  first came up in ThoughtWorks Technology Radar at the end of 2016. It extends the concepts of micro services to the frontend world. The current trend is to build a feature-rich and powerful browser application, aka single page app, which sits on top of a micro service architecture. Over time the frontend layer, often developed by a separate team, grows and gets more difficult to maintain. That’s what we call a  Frontend Monolith . The idea behind Micro Frontends is to think about a website or web app as  a composition of features  which are owned by  independent teams . Each team has a  distinct area of business  or  mission  it cares about and specialises in. A team is  cross functional  and develops its features  end-to-end , from database to user interface. However, this idea is not new. It has a lot in common with the  Self-contained Syste...
