## What it is
Garfish is a micro front-end framework for composing multiple independently developed and deployed front-end applications into a single cohesive product. It supports cross-framework integration (Vue, React, Angular), route-driven mounting, dependency sharing, preloading, and multi-instance sub-applications.

## Use cases
- compose multiple frontend apps into one product
- migrate a legacy app incrementally to a new framework
- let teams independently develop and deploy frontend sub-apps
- run multiple micro frontend sub-applications on one page
- share dependencies across micro frontend apps to reduce bundle size
- split a large SPA into independently testable smaller apps

## When to choose
- you need cross-framework micro frontend composition (Vue, React, Angular mixed)
- you want route-driven automatic mounting/unmounting of sub-apps
- you need dependency sharing and preloading to cut switching time
- you need battle-tested stability from large-scale production use

## When to avoid
- you are building a small single-team app where micro frontends add unneeded complexity
- you need English documentation today (docs are primarily Chinese)
- you only need simple component sharing rather than full app-level composition

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: frontend-framework, routing, middleware
- domain: frontend, web-development, microservices
