React MFE Template
Reusable template for creating micro frontends with React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Vite. Includes design system, testing, and CI/CD.
What it is
A reusable template for creating micro frontends with React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Vite. Designed to work with the React MFE Shell as the application shell.
Includes ESLint, Prettier, pre-commit hooks, Vitest, tsup for library builds, and release-please for automated versioning.
Features
- Vite + React + TypeScript — modern setup with HMR
- Tailwind CSS — integrated styling utilities
- Dual build — application (Vite) and library (tsup)
- Testing — Vitest with ready-to-go configuration
- CI/CD — GitHub Actions and release-please
- Pre-commit — hooks for linting and formatting
Why it matters
Reduces new micro frontend setup time from hours to minutes. The template includes all team conventions -- linting, testing, builds, CI/CD -- so every new MFE starts with the same standards.
