monorepo VS nextjs-monorepo-example

fixed the capitalization https://github.com/opral/monorepo/commit/6127c6899290b35442c...

Hey there! Have you ever heard about inlang (inlang.com)? Your approach goes in our direction. Great to see so many people fixing the i18n pain! :)

If you want to take a look, here is the website featuring our products: https://inlang.com/

Last time I posted on this Subreddit I was announcing my typesafe i18n library. As luck would have it some people at Inlang saw that post and my project and contacted me to work on ParaglideJS.

I'm from inlang and we have a fully configurable JavaScript i18n library with paraglide-js that might help you. There will be a dedicated adapter of the library for NextJS that is more integrated into the framework. Until then you can look at our NextJS example and set the library up this way.

i am on a 2 year long rabbit hole to solve many i18n problems that devs face https://github.com/inlang/inlang

we are in our third (major) refactor because the problem is so complex and new requirements emerge regularly :/

inlang: localization infrastructure for software and the next git (made by the inlang team and same author of the amazing typesafe-i18n library)

The irony is that this is not needed anymore. The plugin API simplified the config interface so much that initializing configs only differs by the used plugins and their respective configs.

The only useful thing that chatgpt provides is deriving what files in a filesystem are translation files. But a hardcoded version might be faster and more resilient.

Learning: The GPT hype is ... well hype. The amount of work that went into this feature is insane. The work boils down to software engineering. Sure, tools will emerge that make prompt engineering easier but so does the previous ML hypetrain led to endless nocode machine learning tools. Yet, there is no "disruptive everyone builds ML models" (for GPT "everyone will become a developer") nocode machine learning tool in sight. Maybe signaling that the premise of ML NoCode/GPT of "this works for everything" is not true. Deriving what files are translation files, yep. Deriving an entire config file, maybe not.

We faced the same issue and build a viscose extension too! https://github.com/inlang/inlang/tree/main/source-code/ide-extension

For info you can have a look to a setup in httpx (simple yarn 4 + workspaces) or nextjs-monorepo-example (yarn 4 workspaces + turbo + recipe for docker)

I like https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example/

It's pretty easy to setup renovate, the "update dependency XXX PR" comes with the upstream changelogs from which you can have an idea of the work to do if needed. Compared to some other similar tools: monorepo support (ie: workspace:"") + possibility to dedupe your lock file + an easy way to regroug packages (ie: "@vitest/ui" and "vitest" together). An example: https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example/blob/main/renovate.json5.

https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example Here is a very good example monorepo with a similiar usecase

Until the “flat” eslint config file becomes the standard, Here’s a nice example of how to do it.

PS: You can see there: https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example (bunch of recipes but definitely needs a cleanup) and this question https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example/discussions/2220

There is one moderately complex example monorepo that includes a Next.js project and shared lib projects here: https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example

I sometimes put some examples in https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example. It's bare-bone and offer few pros/cons (no nx, no turbo.., but you can upgrade along the way).

But if you have time, you can have a look to this https://github.com/belgattitude/nextjs-monorepo-example/blob/main/apps/web-app/src/features/demo/demo.config.ts.

- If you're using yarn 1, go yarn 3+ with "node_linker: node_modules", eventually "nmMode: hardlinks-local" and yarn workspace plugin (example of .yarnrc.yml config). You'll get some speed up and the update should not be too long to do. Note: this gives comparable speed of pnpm in my experience (whatever benchmark I read).
