Meteor in a monorepo with Yarn workspaces

This is an example setup of Meteor apps in a Yarn Workspaces environment.

The Meteor apps are scaffolded with meteor create --minimal and use Svelte with the help of zodern:melte.

I wanted to include Svelte in this example, since it's notorius for being accidentally bundled in multiple different versions and causing all kinds of trouble when the compiled version and included runtime don't match.

The relevant steps to make it work

1. Create package.json in the root of your monorepo
2. Add all packages and Meteor apps to workspace

"workspaces": [
  "packages/**",
  "app1",
  "app2"
],

3. Define a "never hoist anything" nohoist -rule in package.json of all Meteor apps in the monorepo

"workspaces": {
  "nohoist": [
    "**"
  ]
},

4. Run yarn install in the root of your monorepo
5. That's it!
