This deployment pattern lends itself well to monorepos, since each independently deployed component can live in its own package while still making it easy to share code between components.

For Serverless Applications: While traditional applications can be bundled up and deployed in one big package that contains all application logic, serverless applications are often deployed as many independent components, for instance as serverless functions.

Complexity is reduced chiefly by enforcing a hierarchical dependendcy pattern between modules (npm dependencies cannot be circular) - as opposed to the every file can import any other file free-for-all of a normal JavaScript project.

For Large Applications: Being able to divide these larger applications into multiple packages increases modularity and can help reduce complexity.

For more sophisticated use cases, it can also be useful to be able to reuse the same logic on frontend and backend, for instance for validation.

For Fullstack Applications: When developing frontend and backend code in the same repository, it becomes easier to create end-to-end integration tests as well as allows defining and using types across the frontend and backend.

īefore we go into the implementation, I briefly want to give a few situations when a monorepo may be a good choice for setting up a project: If you just want to get started with an already fully configured TypeScript monorepo for your convienience, consider using one of the open-source templates on. In this guide, I will briefly go through the challenges and solutions for each one of these.

Custom tools based on Terraform for infrastructure and deployment.

ESLint and Prettier for linting and formatting.

TypeScript project references for inter-module dependencies.

Yarn 2 workspaces for package management.

Now I believe I have finally arrived at a solution that has minimal remaining workarounds and works well for smaller and larger projects. However, I have always been somewhat unsatisfied with my solutions - with them often involving clumsy workarounds and issues that would prevent them to scale up to larger projects. To make this easier, I even created a little website, Goldstack, that generates modular starter projects. It turned out that for various reasons it is fiendishly difficult to develop a JavaScript/TypeScript project that is broken up into multiple independent modules.

I’ve written a couple of posts about how to set up JavaScript and TypeScript Monorepos over the past three years ( #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7), and I kind of thought I had it all figured out - but I didn’t.
