Frontend Architecture, AI, and Reducing Complexity | Maxi Ferreira | Master.dev Podcast Episode #32

In this episode of the Master.dev podcast, Marc Grabanski sits down with Maxi Ferreira, staff frontend engineer at Help Scout and writer of the Front End at Scale newsletter, to talk about frontend architecture, from monolithic apps to micro frontends, and how AI is reshaping the way engineers think about system design.

Maxi shares his take on when micro frontends actually make sense (and why most teams should start with a modular monolith instead), the ongoing debate between SPAs and MPAs, and how AI-assisted development is shifting the value of engineering work from implementation to architectural decision-making. He also opens up about his path from teaching himself to code in Argentina using Dreamweaver, to building Help Scout's original design system, to launching Front End at Scale as a way to explore frontend architecture more deeply.

If you're interested in frontend architecture, micro frontends, AI-assisted development, design systems, or building a long-term engineering career, this conversation is full of practical insight and hard-won lessons.
