Delivery Hero's Micro-Feature Architecture for Mobile
Original post Micro-Feature Architecture for Mobile
Article Summary
Hakan Bagci, Taso Dane, and Vitor Reis from Delivery Hero tackle a problem most mobile teams face: how do you let multiple teams build features for the same screen without stepping on each other's toes?
The Delivery Hero engineering team developed Micro-Feature Architecture to enable independent team development on context-aware, single-screen mobile apps. Born from their Android Rider Application work in Q1 2023, this platform-agnostic approach solves the complexity of dynamic, map-centric interfaces where traditional tab-based navigation won't work.
Key Takeaways
- Micro-features are self-contained, host-agnostic UI components with minimal integration footprint
- Uses Unidirectional Data Flow with observable repositories for reactive state management
- Dynamic host configurations prevent memory pressure as feature count grows
- Factory API pattern keeps implementation details hidden from host containers
- Enables team collaboration on single screens while maintaining feature independence
Micro-Feature Architecture lets teams independently build and deploy features to the same dynamic screen by treating UI components as portable, self-contained units that hosts can inject with minimal coupling.
