Discussion on monorepo

We are going to explore

What is monorepo?

• When multiple apps ( web app, backend or hybrid app ) are store in the single repository we call that monorepo
• Monorepo embrance DRY Stands by sharing the business logic and utilites with all the apps in the that repo. Because of this we reduces the development time significantly. But poorly written code & structure can backfire this advantage.
• Monorepo support multiple deployment which mean cms in the monorepo can be deployed to docker which webapp in that same repo can be deployed to amplify

When to used Monorepo?

• When we develop the multiple apps ( web app, backend or hybrid app ) for an organisation with overlapping business logics.
• When we want to do a development of multiple apps of an organization with managed/controlled infrastructure.
• When an organisation consist of two or more apps when has overlapping business logics.

When not to used Monorepo ?

• Do not use Monorepo on project with tight deadlines, a poor structure or code can reduce the quality of an app & development experience of an app over time.
• Do not use Monorepo on small project. Trade off is not worth it

How about we don't share the business logic & share only utils in the Monorepo ?

• Than u are not using Monorepo the right way. The goal & purpose for the Monorepo os to embrance the DRY Stands & introduce the structure of the project.
• We have better approch to solve the issue of sharing utils, for that please follow this issue

i don't recommend the articles, because i want to prevent u guys from reading articles provided by teachers or newbie. Because most of the issue related to the mono repo are related to practices not technical.
I believe this video perfectly rounded the mono repo issue related to scaling

But still, i want u guys to reach out the connections from your dev connections ( linkedin or dev communities ) and discuss about this topic with the one who use monorepo before. By "the one who use monorepo" i mean not for fun projects or side projects. The running project with monorepo with industrial for almost a year or over the years
