Hosting all your PHP packages together in a monorepo

When a PHP project becomes too large and complex to manage effectively, it is often split into independent packages managed via Composer, using the Packagist registry for distribution. This approach, however, introduces challenges in managing decentralized package hosting, as dependencies between packages complicate the versioning and pull request processes. A monorepo offers a solution by consolidating all packages into a single repository, simplifying the management of version control and pull requests, though it still requires separate repositories for distribution due to Packagist constraints. The use of tools like Monorepo builder helps automate the synchronization and splitting of code between development and distribution repositories. A structured approach to organizing the monorepo, such as creating a layered hierarchy, can further enhance manageability. This method facilitates a cohesive development environment, allowing for version-controlled collaboration across packages, though it necessitates additional management to maintain synchronization and handle package distribution.
