A monorepo is a single repository containing multiple projects and shared libraries with their relationships.

At AOE, we are use a monorepo that is home to both our React and Next.js based frontends and our Go / Flamingo based backends, as well as shared libraries we use in all of our projects.

The main benefits in that approach are:

• Breaking changes are directly detected and must be fixed within the same pull request on all projects
• No conflicting versions of dependencies
• Same CI Setup for everything and no overhead on new projects
• Tool consistency over all projects

If you take the monorepo approach, of course you want to have a tool to manage it. There are a lot of them on the market and at AOE we have decided to go with Nx.
