Abstract
What happens when 15+ teams collaborate on the same modular React Native app?
In this talk, I’ll share the architectural evolution of a platform designed for scale from day one — and the challenges we faced as the number of modules, contributors, and cross-cutting concerns grew.
We’ll dive into our modular structure, how we apply microfrontend principles in mobile, and how we introduced server-driven UI to empower product teams. We’ll also reflect on what it means to lead a platform team in this context — balancing autonomy and consistency while enabling fast, accessible, and scalable development across the organization.
