Frontend Layered Architecture

Is layered architecture outdated in the age of React and micro-frontends? This deep-dive maps classic presentation/business/data-access layers to modern frontend concerns (UI, state, API), shows how to enforce boundaries, and explains why Feature-Sliced Design combines layering with feature locality for scalable teams.

Component Architecture Guide

Component architecture scales when boundaries are explicit, APIs are stable, and UI composition is intentional. This guide walks through practical component design patterns (presentational/container, compound, headless), state partitioning, and library organization—then shows how Feature-Sliced Design (FSD) makes these practices repeatable across teams and codebases.
