>monorepo, which means tightly-coupled code-sharing between all the different components.

It's funny how one persons dream is another person's nightmare.

Tightly coupled software is horrifying to me. Modularization all the way; define contracts then build away.

Tightly-coupled doesn't necessarily mean you don't have contracts.

In this case, the contract is shared TypeScript types between the front and back-ends. This means you can statically verify as much as the type system allows.
