Episode notes
Wes's Monorepo Journey
- Wes had never built a monorepo until recently, prompted by managing multiple projects like a video player and admin dashboard within his course platform, "Boss Monster".
- Managing content across separate repositories became cumbersome, leading him to explore monorepos for streamlined development.
Scott's Monorepo Structure
- Scott's monorepo includes a SvelteKit UI, Fastify API, shared code, open-source Svelte packages (managed via git submodules), and an admin UI.
- This setup enables code sharing and managing multiple projects, including public and private packages.
Monorepo Benefits
- Monorepos excel at managing multiple packages within a single repository, simplifying code sharing and dependency management.
- They are particularly beneficial for teams and open-source projects, but less useful for solo developers on simple projects.
