The State of JavaScript Monorepo Tooling
Welcome! This is the very first episode of the devtools.fm podcast 🎉 On this podcast we plan to have in-depth conversations about developer tools with the people who make them. In this first episode we explore a category of tooling that is near and dear to both out hearts and our workflow: monorepos. There are many tools to get your monorepo off the ground and choosing between them can be intimidating. Whether it's installing dependencies or publishing you packages, there's many options to choose from.LinksAndrew's monorepo blog postautointuitortasemantic-releaselernarushchangesetsprobotnxyarnpaletteturborepomightystadiaTooltipsalfred1passwordsemgreptj/nfigastro
