Reviewer scorecard
“Component isolation done right. Independent versioning and testing per component is how design systems should work.”
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“The learning curve is steep and the tooling has rough edges. Storybook + npm packages achieve 80% of the value.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“Component discovery and documentation are excellent. Designers can browse and understand available components easily.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
