Implementing micro frontend

Stack

VueJS -> container
ReactJS + web component -> component
Rollup -> bundling component

ReactJS + Web component

Here is the react component

Count/index.js

import React from 'react'
import styles from "./count.module.scss";
const Count = ({count}) => {
  return (
    <div className={styles.text}>{count}</div>
  )
}

export default Count

Count/count.module.scss

.text{
    color: aquamarine;
}

Here is the script of web component which is wrapper of react component

Count/count.js

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client';
import Count from '.';

class CountElement extends HTMLElement {

    get count(){
        return this.getAttribute("count");
    }

    set count(val){
        this.setAttribute("count",val);
    }

    connectedCallback() {
        this.attachShadow({mode: 'open'});
        let link = document.createElement('link');
        link.setAttribute('rel', 'stylesheet');
        link.setAttribute('href', 'http://localhost:3000/component.css');
        this.shadowRoot.appendChild(link);
        const mountPoint = document.createElement("div");
        this.shadowRoot.appendChild(mountPoint);
        const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(mountPoint);
        root.render(<Count count={this.count}/>);
    }

}
window.customElements.define("count-display", CountElement);

CountButton/countButton.js

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client';
import CountButton from '.';

class CountButtonElement extends HTMLElement {
    connectedCallback() {
        this.attachShadow({mode: 'open'});
        let link = document.createElement('link');
        link.setAttribute('rel', 'stylesheet');
        link.setAttribute('href', 'http://localhost:3000/component.css');
        this.shadowRoot.appendChild(link);
        const mountPoint = document.createElement("div");
        this.shadowRoot.appendChild(mountPoint);
        const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(mountPoint);
       
       // emit the event with custom name
        const event = new CustomEvent("onAddCount",{ 
            // allow event buddle up to parent
            buddles: true, 
            // allow event to propagate across shadow boundaries
            composed:true
        })

        root.render(<CountButton onAddCount={()=>{
            document.dispatchEvent(event);
        }} />);
    }
}

window.customElements.define("count-button", CountButtonElement);

Here is the main target bundling file

component.js

import "./Count/count";
import "./CountButton/countButton";

Here is the rollup file, to bundle css and web component js file as a output

rollup.config.js

import resolve from "@rollup/plugin-node-resolve";
import { terser } from "rollup-plugin-terser";
import postcss from 'rollup-plugin-postcss';
import commonjs from '@rollup/plugin-commonjs';
import babel from '@rollup/plugin-babel';
import externalGlobals from "rollup-plugin-external-globals";

// hard node env to production for bundled js file
const Global = `var process = {
    env: {
      NODE_ENV: 'production'
    }
  }`
// eslint-disable-next-line import/no-anonymous-default-export
export default {
    input: "src/component/component.js",
    output: {
        file: "public/component.js",
        format: "esm",
        banner: Global
    },
    // prevent bundling with react 
    external: ["react","react-dom", "react-scripts"],
    plugins: [
        resolve(),
        babel({
            presets: ["@babel/preset-react"],
        }),
        commonjs(),
        // reduce the bundle size
        terser(),
        // support sass, bundle multiple sass files into single css file
        postcss({
            extract: true,
            modules: true,
            use: ['sass'],
        }),
        // make sure react is injected from the script of vue container
        externalGlobals({
            react: "React",
            "react-dom": "ReactDOM",
        })
        
    ],
}
