To structure a large-scale frontend codebase and prevent tight coupling, implement feature-based modularity by grouping components, hooks, and API logic into feature-centric directories, replacing file-type folders to improve discoverability and module isolation.

The best way to separate state management layers in a scalable frontend application is to establish clear state layering that distinguishes between server cache, global client state, and local component state, ensuring a centralized data-access layer.

Enforce strict import boundaries to stop cross-feature dependencies by applying architectural patterns that implement strict import rules, preventing cross-feature coupling and maintaining clean architectural layers across the monorepo.

Restructuring to feature-based frontend architecture helps with bundle size optimization by enforcing modular, clean code with strict module isolation, which directly targets improved maintainability and bundle size reduction for large-scale web applications.

You need to restructure your frontend project using feature-based modularity when your codebase becomes unmanageable, tightly coupled, and difficult to navigate as it grows in size and complexity, requiring improved maintainability and clear state management.

The limitation of applying strict architectural patterns for module isolation is that it requires adherence to defined architectural rules for module isolation and centralized data-access layers, demanding strict compliance to maintain clean architectural layers effectively.
