+title: Module Federation
+---
+
+**EXPERIMENTAL!** This is feature is subject to change as we evaluate and gather feedback
+
+Module federation enables an application to expose a module to be consumed by itself or other applications.
+
+To enable module federation in a create react app add either a *.modulefederationrc.json* or *.modulefederationrc.js* in the root folder - depending on how dynamic the config needs to be.
+
+The configuration is simply passed to the `ModuleFederationPlugin` [Read more about the configuration](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/module-federation/#modulefederationplugin-high-level) or [Find examples on module-federation](https://github.com/module-federation/module-federation-examples#module-federation-examples)
+
+Examples:
+
+App 1
+```json
+// .modulefederationrc.json
+{
+  "name": "app1",
+  "remotes": {
+    "app2": "app2@http://localhost:3002/remoteEntry.js"
+  },
+  "shared": ["react", "react-dom"]
+}
+```
+
+App 2
+```js
+// .modulefederationrc.js
+module.exports = {
+  name: "app2",
+  filename: "remoteEntry.js",
+  exposes: {
+    "./Button": "./src/Button"
+  },
+  shared: ["react", "react-dom"],
+};
+```
+
+Note:
+Currently there is not a template for creating an app with federated modules, but rename eg. the `index.js` to `bootstrap.js` and add a new `index.js` with the following code:
+```js
+import("./bootstrap");
+```
