Micro Frontends – But how?

Microservices have grown into a solid architectural approach. They are established and proven. There is enough experience about benefits, limitations, advantages, and disadvantages.
How can the advantages and promises of microservice approaches be used when they are applied to frontends?
In all fundamental architectural decisions, one should be aware of the framework conditions and requirements before using micro frontends. And this doesn’t just impact technology but also team interaction.

Digital accessibility in working life through participatory evaluation

“Digital accessibility in working life through participatory evaluation” is a project of the Institute for Digital Participation (IDT) of the University of Applied Sciences Bremen. Its approach: Software can only be developed to be accessible if from the outset everyone involved in user tests will later work with the software – especially people with disabilities.

We report about this just-started project and invite you to participate!

Product first, Code Second

I will showcase my journey as a software engineer in Zalando describing the software development practices along with product involvement. Why we as software developers shouldn’t over-engineer the code, how to trade-off between product requirements, followed by customers’ requests vs code maintenance/quality and how to deliver and meet customers’ expectations in the right way, and how to disagree depending on requirements.
