## What it is
Hel-micro is a toolchain-agnostic module federation SDK that works in both the browser and Node.js, letting developers load remote shared modules at runtime without rebuilding. It includes a CLI for scaffolding micro-module projects and an optional helpack platform for module version management.

## Use cases
- share modules across multiple frontend projects at runtime
- load remote modules without rebuilding the host app
- implement micro-frontend architecture with shared dependencies
- hot-update shared libraries without redeploying the whole app
- share node modules between backend services at runtime
- manage versions and rollbacks of shared remote modules

## When to choose
- you need runtime module federation independent of webpack, vite, or other build tools
- you want shared dependencies to update without rebuilding consumer apps
- you need cross-environment module sharing between browser and Node.js
- you are building a micro-frontend architecture with shared micro-modules

## When to avoid
- you only need simple code splitting or lazy loading within a single app
- your team prefers build-time module federation built into webpack
- you want a fully managed micro-frontend framework with routing and lifecycle management
- you need a solution with a permissive, well-known open-source license
