Exploring Alternative Frontend Architecture Patterns

 A traditional approach to building frontend applications is the monolithic architecture. In this model, the entire frontend application is constructed as a single, unified unit with a single codebase, often encompassing the client-side UI, the application logic, and the data access layer. The term "monolithic" itself implies a structure composed "all in one piece". One of the primary benefits of a monolithic architecture is its initial simplicity, making it relatively easy to develop and deploy, especially for smaller projects. Testing and debugging are also often simplified due to the centralized nature of the codebase. Furthermore, for certain operations that require centralized processing, a monolith might offer better performance compared to distributed architectures. However, as the application grows in size and complexity, development speed tends to slow down. Scaling individual components becomes difficult, as the entire application must be scaled even if on...
