I think this article is complete horseshit. A monorepo will serve you 99% of the time until you hit a certain level of scale when you get to worry about whether a monorepo or a polyrepo is actually material. Most cases are never going to get there. Before that point, a polyrepo is purely a distraction and makes synchronous deployment really painful. We had to migrate a polyrepo to a monorepo and it was not fun because it was a migration that should have never had to be done in the first place. Articles like this are fundamentally irresponsible.
