  • I agree that there are inextricable organizational/political concerns here, and that it's interesting tech, but the project owner is already pressuring us to show progress, and our manager has expressed a real concern that the project could be outsourced or cancelled if their expectations are not meant on schedule, in which case I and the other contractors are out of our jobs. If time were not a factor, I'd not be so concerned about this becoming a constant source of uncertainty and tension. Ultimately they're workplace arguments, but driven by concerns about the tech side.. Commented Sep 25, 2019 at 14:56
  • While one "micro-app" could perform a function of say, editing a table, it cannot perform useful tasks on its own and they must act in concert to perform the specific reporting process. I can see the devops argument, but using a modular component model in React, we can create data flows and contracts between components that isolate any functionality we need to with equal effectiveness, and if even one critical portion of the app fails, it becomes unusable. Using this pattern would not change the core structure of how it operates, but greatly complicate implementing the same design. Commented Sep 25, 2019 at 15:11
