4:40 - What is pnpm?

• https://pnpm.io/
• Performant npm
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiTmX2dW84E
• Find and remove node modules
  • find . -name "node_modules" -type d -prune -exec rm -rf '{}' +

08:30 - Why monorepo?

• Internal packages all in one place
• Forks and custom packages easier
• Commands that control everything at once

10:33 - Workspaces

• Not exclusive to pnpm
• Yarn, npm, pnpm all have them now
  • Different syntax

 packages:   - "packages/**"  

12:48 - How it works in practice

• All commands run through root
• Use in host, hook up my monorepo to render run commands
• Filter and recursive
• "install:all": "pnpm recursive install",
• "clean": "pnpm recursive exec -- rm -rf node_modules; rm shrinkwrap.yaml; rm -rf node_modules",
• "ui:dev": "pnpm recursive run dev --filter @leveluptuts/ui",

16:35 - Using submodules

• https://paigeniedringhaus.substack.com/p/march-2021-git-submodules

• Public and private
