Module Federation within Turbopack

[slinkardbrandon]

Hello! I watched part of the turbopack announcement today at Next conf and was immediately very excited to hear about it (thanks!).

I have a few projects that I maintain today that are built leveraging Webpack module federation. Is this something that may be supported by turbopack now or in the future?

I think it could be very interesting to be able to achieve federated components for use within microfrontends with NextJS and turbopack so I figured I'd ask / contribute the idea if it hasn't been already. That said, I know the tool is in alpha so I acknowledge this is quite early on to propose / ask about this.

If this is something that's being discussed, I'd love to help 😄

Thanks for the awesome tools!

I second that. Also working on a bigger microfrontend project leveraging webpack module federation. If turbopack would support such a feature, that would be a big reason to consider the switch :)

If you (as a large and trustworthy company) are brave enough for this kind of marketing:

We've built Turbopack as the successor of Webpack - the bundler that's at the heart of many beloved frameworks. Any successor to Webpack would need to be faster and just as flexible and extensible.

src: Turbo.build - Turbopack Vs Webpack - Web Archive 25.10.22

the question should rather be "when" instead of "if" 😉.

So if a lot of people vote for this, maybe we'll have it sooner. 🎉

We in our company as well are using webpack Module Federation, the only thing stopping us from switching to turbopack is support for MF.

It's kinda surprising to see not much interest around this feature in this thread.

Any chance the Turbopack team could share if this is being considered for future releases? A little insight would be cool and might spark more discussion here.

Actually using monorepo that Turborepo offers is a big and even unnecessary move for some projects, most of the time Module Federation would suffice. For example, you need to have a host as a wrapper UI and some apps inside.
Just thinking about having Turbopack and MF together would be a great deal.

Any plans for MF on Turbopack?

do you have any updates for MF on Turbopack?

Im leveraging module federation with nextjs, currently Im very happy with the combination of @module-federation/nextjs-mf and next the results have ben very positive so far, but the rest of the frontend teams in the company are skeptical for the reasons discussed here

Are there any plans to support MF in Turbopack with the App Router?
