What is the most straightforward and battle tested way to deal with symlinks in a React Native monorepo?

I made a monorepo with React, React Native, TypeScript, Lerna and Yarn Workspaces.

By the end, I always had some issues with a package not found because of symlinks.

Is there a known processus or tool that is battle tested and simple to deploy to make a monorepo to share code between between React and React Native without the hell of symlinks management and without a ton of custom configuration ?

Solution

  • If you want to use Yarn Workspaces, I wrote a package to help you with the configuration to resolve symlinks, react-native-yarn-workspaces-v2.
    I use React, React Native and Electron in a mono-repo and it works fine for me.
