Creating a micro frontend application with standalone components
To exemplify the use of the micro frontend architecture in our gym diary, we will create a form to define new exercises for our users. Let’s create another Angular project, simulating a new team that will specifically take care of this functionality. In your operating system’s command line, use the following command:
ng new gym_exercises --skip-git --standalone --routing false --style css
We learned about the ng new command in Chapter 1, Starting Projects the Right Way, but here we are using some parameters that we haven’t seen before. We are using the skip-git parameter because, in this example, we are creating it in the same Git project (which already has the gym-diary and gym-backend projects). The routing parameter is set to false because our project will be loaded in the diary application route, and the style parameter is set to CSS so the Angular CLI does not need to ask what type of styling...
