Reviewer scorecard
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“React hooks for real-time presence, cursors, and collaborative editing. Makes adding multiplayer features trivial.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“Building real-time collaboration from scratch is brutal. Liveblocks abstracts the hard parts with a clean API.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
“Every SaaS app will add real-time collaboration. Liveblocks is the infrastructure layer that makes it practical.”
