Up until a year ago or so I used to extract often-used components (I was mostly doing Android and Java/Kotlin stuff back then) into seperate libraries that I then included everywhere locally (because publishing to Maven was a huge hassle). Then I realized this was a problem both in terms of versioning (breaking changes) and for collaborators who had to set up the extra library exactly like I did on their system. Nowadays I still copy code sometimes or re-use binaries if the builds are reproducible and I can safely streamline them but I don't try to properly extract anything anymore.
