repository-structure

A clean monorepo structure is organized using a standardized workspace layout with root and per-package folders like packages/ and src/, defining clear subpackage naming conventions and directory structures to maintain coherence.

Monorepo dependency rules prevent cyclic dependencies by defining strict build orders and separating root versus subpackage dependencies, ensuring cross-package version alignment for shared libraries like aws-cdk-lib.

To add a new package to a monorepo, scaffold the subpackage by aligning its directory structure to the standard layout and synchronizing the aws-cdk-lib version across all existing packages.

Standardized package layout guidelines are needed when teams create new packages or update layouts in a tangled monorepo, ensuring scalable structure, architecture decisions, and consistent cross-package versioning.

The best way to manage shared utilities and architecture in a monorepo is applying type-driven structure decisions and standard directory conventions, ensuring dependencies and build order maintain coherence across packages.
