MonoRepos for the Masses
summary
Argues that practical monorepos beat vague hype by showing concrete tooling and workflows: uses yarn workspaces to deduplicate node_modules, uses lerna to build test and publish packages, cites Babel as “over a hundred packages” and Google’s 86 terabyte mono repo as scale example, and shows Expo’s universe workflow where one branch yields a single PR touching Android iOS docs and web. Demonstrates one-command bootstrap, one-PR cross-package changes, and the deployment CI pattern that only rebuilds changed packages.
