lerna
:dragon: Lerna is a fast, modern build system for managing and publishing multiple JavaScript/TypeScript packages from the same repository.
Even if you run npm install, only npm 7 and up support workspaces. There is no straightforward way to enforce developer npm version although it is not impossible, so you might want to document the version requirement in your root README. A developer without npm 7+ will end up with unresolved modules in their editor.
As soon as you’ve used this feature once, you can no longer use that subdomain with the Netlify CLI. We had to move to other prefixes using the Netlify CLI --alias option. The documentation says to “avoid” using the same prefix as branch names, but doesn’t say why... now you know! Here is the GitHub issue about this.
We at Caribou have recently adopted a new TypeScript monorepo stack for our app frontends using turborepo.
We had a first look at monorepo management. We knew Lerna was a popular choice, but Turborepo had recently been acquired by Vercel and seemed highly promising. It purported to be very fast but simpler than Lerna, and one of our engineers had a positive experience with it.
