pnpm Workspaces with TypeScript

Configure a monorepo with pnpm and shared tsconfig.

What Are pnpm Workspaces?

pnpm workspaces let you manage multiple packages in a single repository with a shared node_modules structure, reducing disk usage and enabling cross-package imports.

# pnpm-workspace.yaml
packages:
  - "packages/*"
  - "apps/*"

Creating the Workspace Structure

A typical pnpm monorepo has packages/ for shared libraries and apps/ for deployable applications.

monorepo/
├── pnpm-workspace.yaml
├── package.json          # root
├── packages/
│   ├── core/             # shared logic
│   └── ui/               # shared components
└── apps/
    └── web/              # Next.js app
