vite-ts-monorepo-rfc

I stumbled over this RFC researching solutions for the problem described in this repo: how to best use source-sharing within a mono repo to avoid a build step for cross references. While most solutions sound promising there is a key problem to all of them: You must use relative path or imports for all imports within a package. If you use absolute paths or package specific ts-paths things fall apart. Here a simplified example of what I mean: Depending on what paths you use for imports, the imports will fail at some point: 1/1, 1/2, 1/3: import of '@brand/lib1/fun2' already fails because points to the lib2 sources 2/1, 2/2, 2/3: import of '@brand/lib1/fun2' already fails because points to the lib2 sources 3/1: import of '@brand/lib1/fun2' works, but import of '@src/shared' fails because points to the lib2 sources. 3/2: import of '@brand/lib1/fun2' works, but import of 'src/shared' fails because points to the lib2 sources. 3/3 import of '@brand/lib1/fun2' works and import of './shared' I didn't test this through but I also expect things get tricky regarding automatic imports by the IDE. I guess you either need to ensure relative paths or you use the full syntax across the whole codebase. Happy to hear any inputs how this challenge can be solved.
