20.0.3

This release allows for avoiding over-sharing (usually caused by shareAll) by scanning the code for npm packages that are actually used. This brings several benefits:

• Improved build times
• Improved start-up times (smaller import map)
• Fewer issues with node packages that are in the (mono) repo but not used by the app in question
• Prevents subtle bugs such as #865

Start-up times are especially improved when using packages with many secondary entry points, such as date-fns. Before, each of these entry points was built and added to the source map; now, only the ones actually needed are added.

Version 20.0.6 provides further improvements on top of this new feature:

• The creation of the file tsconfig.federation.config.ts is not needed anymore
• Localization works out of the box

This feature is hidden behind a feature flag to allow for a backwards-compatible behavior.

Activate it in your federation.config.js as follows:

features: {
  ignoreUnusedDeps: true
}
