![]() We need to be able to run for example all build scripts within the monorepo for all packages that have such a script. Some of the scripts are common for all packages, like test or build, others are specific to the particular package. Coordination of running scriptsĮvery package inside monorepo can have variety of scripts. You want to share and reuse dependencies within each package to shorten the installation time. ![]() Dependency managementĭependency management is one the hardest things about monorepo. Monorepo must have a mechanism how to interconnect packages and allow us to use one package code within another. ![]() Every package contains code specific to it’s context and can depend on zero or more other packages within monorepo. Monorepo code is usually divided into separate contexts, called packages. Along with this definition I think following additional criteria must must be satisfied too: Easy code reuse The Wiki definition of monorepo is as follows: monorepo ("mono" from Greek μόνος, mónos, 'single, alone' and "repo" short for repository) is a software development strategy where code for many projects is stored in the same repository. My prior experience with building a monorepo was creating a git repository with frontend and backend directories inside it. Three months ago the opportunity finally came. I always wished I had a use-case for setting up a monorepo and learning how to manage and release it. Majority of those libraries used Lerna, a tool for managing JavaScript monorepos. It only made sense, dividing the code into separate packages with fixed or independent release cycles. Some time later I noticed that a lot of libraries that I used to build software in JavaScript started to use monorepos. I also read that Google was using m onorepo successfully for all it’s source code but I’ve also read that it came with a lot of problems. Before 2017 even the term m onorepo was not really standardized for this software development practice. I knew monorepos existed before but never really seen one. In last 4 years, monorepos became a big thing.
