Working with a well maintained mono repo is so nice, any other workflow just sucks to go back to. Working with a "lets do a monorepo" monorepo, where who ever set it up didn't understand the points in this article and more is a nightmare.
I think this is a business opportunity, if someone could sell the polished monorepo experience and tools to companies with engineering organizations but can't pull off a successful "we need to fork git" project to support their developers.
- halflife 1y agoIt is a business opportunity, NX is offering it. In my previous startup, I started developing from the get go with NX, it became a huge velocity boost to our team. With 15 person RND we had standards that a 100 person RND didn’t accomplish. In my new company (which has bought the startup), they tried the “let’s do a monorepo” approach. It is a catastrophe. I am now in the process of migrating them to NX with great results.

Source: my job’s monorepo is running nx, but I’m not in developer productivity; used to work with a large codebase with an accompanying test suite of thousands of hours of a single box and it’s kinda like watching people rediscovering the roundness required to make the wheel.
