in plain english

News mini-app showcase is a demo project, essentially a small news-reading app, built to show how a separate, independent app can plug into a larger "super app." Think of a super app as an umbrella platform that hosts multiple mini-apps inside it, similar to how WeChat or Grab let you access many services without leaving the main app. This repo is the news-reading piece of that puzzle, part of a broader demonstration called the Super App Showcase. At a high level, the app lets users browse articles and news content. What's interesting is that it doesn't handle user sign-in or account management on its own. Instead, it borrows those screens from a separate authentication module. This is the core idea being demonstrated: different mini-apps can share features built by other teams, so you don't have to rebuild login pages every time you create a new app. The technical approach that makes this possible is called Module Federation, which allows separate codebases to load and use each other's components at runtime. Because of that shared-authentication design, the news app can't fully run on its own unless the auth module's server is also running. You can either run both servers together to see how the mini-app behaves inside the larger super app, or you can strip out the auth pieces entirely if you just want the news app to work independently. The project provides straightforward commands for both scenarios. This repo is aimed at teams exploring super-app architectures, companies that want to let different product squads build and ship features independently, then integrate those features into one parent app. A ride-sharing company, for example, might have one team build a food-ordering mini-app and another build a news feed, both plugging into the same main platform. The project uses React Native (for iOS and Android) and TypeScript, and the README doesn't go into much detail beyond setup and configuration steps.

prompts (copy fr)

prompt 1
Set up and run the News Mini App Showcase together with its companion auth module so I can see the news app running inside the super app. Walk me through the commands and what I should expect on screen.
prompt 2
Strip out the authentication dependency from the News Mini App Showcase so the news app runs independently without the auth module. What files and imports do I need to remove or replace?
prompt 3
Explain how Module Federation is used in this repo to let the news app load authentication screens from a separate codebase at runtime, and show me the key configuration files that enable it.
prompt 4
Help me use this repo as a template to build my own mini-app that plugs into the Super App Showcase. What conventions, file structure, and federation config do I need to follow?
