Merged
Conversation
Add an explicit note that remote manifest files are NOT generated by webpack or ModuleFederationPlugin — users must produce and host them themselves alongside their builds. Split the per-remote vs registry manifest formats into clearly labeled subsections.

Summary
Addresses #51. The README references
remote-entries.json(and per-remote manifest files) without explaining where they come from, leading to confusion — the OP searched the web for it and found nothing because webpack andModuleFederationPlugindo not generate these files. They are user-produced JSON files that teams publish alongside their builds.This PR:
No code changes.
