Hey, I worked with Jonathan on 1JS a while ago (on a team, Excel).

Just a note OMR (the office monorepo) is a different (and actually much larger) monorepo than 1JS (which is big on its own)

To be fair I suspect a lot of the bloat in both originates from the amount of home grown tooling.




I thought Microsoft had one monorepo. Isn't that kind of the point? How many do they have?


The point of a monorepo is that all the dependencies for a suite of related products are all in a single repo, not that everything your company produces is in a single repo.


Most people use the "suite of related products" definition of monorepo, but some companies like Google and Meta have a single company-wide repository. It's unfortunate that the two distinct strategies have the same name.
