Monorepo + TypeScript + Next.js: The Sane Way
This repo is an experiment to set-up a monorepo using TypeScript and some shared config. Everything is not perfect and "real-world" ready, but it should be a good first step.
- Strict TypeScript: potential bugs are not an option
- Transpiled server-side code: needed if you are going to re-use modules for both client and server-side
- Jest support
- One TypeScript config to rule them all: consistency first
- One TSLint config to rule them all: no need to be masochist
- One Jest config to rule them all: keep things sane (you can filter tests by Regex anyway)
- Transpile local modules with Next.js on-demand
More in details
TypeScript
The config is at the root: <root>/tsconfig.json.
Jest
Unit tests are to be but in a __tests__ folder to match the Jest philosophy and not pollute your directories too much.
The config is at the root.
TSLint
Use the config you want in <root>/tslint.json. The default uses semistandard.
Root folder
Put everything you want there, a Next app, shared code, a react-native app, a CRA, even a Wordpress app if you want.
To-do
- Different Types definitions per projects: a definition Type for a website may not be shared with a react-native app for example (global types are currently shared across modules)
- ...
Eventually:
- Cypress support?
