Welcome Michael Geers !

I am seeing web components growing slowly year by year, what is the role of web components in micro service?
does this book cover web components in micro frontend also?

Hi,

yes, I think web components are a great and standards compliant way to solve frontend integration between different systems. We build our applications/fragments in techniques like React, Vue or vanilla JS and then package them as web components for the other systems to use. You can see working examples of this here [1] and in chapter 5 of my book I go even deeper into this topic [2].
