Introduction

Problem

In a micro frontends setup, one of the main problems is cross application communication and this library aims to solve it by providing a simple and framework agnostic API with zero configuration

Solution

Exposing an observable that behaves like scoped a pub/sub topic passing events per namespaces.

This Observable is exported by the core package windowed-observable with the following features:

✨ Features

• 📦 Scoped events by namespaces
• 🎣 Events history retrieval with SubscriptionOptions
• 🛡 100% Written in TypeScript with static types

Packages
