## TL;DR

This study uses integral field spectroscopy to analyze the spatially resolved interstellar medium and stellar properties of two extremely metal-poor, high-ionization star-forming galaxies, providing insights into primordial galaxy conditions.

## Contribution

It presents detailed spatially resolved analysis of ISM and stellar features in two low-metallicity galaxies with Wolf-Rayet stars, advancing understanding of early galaxy physics.

## Key findings

- Identification of spatial variations in ISM properties.
- Detection of Wolf-Rayet features and nebular HeII emission.
- Insights into star formation in primordial-like environments.

## Abstract

Extremely metal-poor, high-ionizing starbursts in the local Universe provide unique laboratories for exploring in detail the physics of high-redshift systems. Also, their ongoing star-formation and haphazard morphology make them outstanding proxies for primordial galaxies. Using integral field spectroscopy, we spatially resolved the ISM properties and massive stars of two first-class low metallicity galaxies with Wolf-Rayet features and nebular HeII emission: Mrk178 and IZw18. In this review, we summarize our main results for these two objects.
