Because everything lives in packages/api , any frontend change that expects a new field forces you to update the resolver in the same PR . The magic of the monorepo happens in package.json scripts. After every schema change, regenerate all clients automatically.
// DynamoDB datasource const postTable = new dynamodb.Table(...); const postDS = api.addDynamoDbDataSource('PostDS', postTable); appsync unified repo
Enter the (monorepo). By managing your AWS AppSync configuration—schema, resolvers (VTL or JavaScript), datasources, and even client code—in a single repository, you can enforce consistency, improve developer experience, and streamline CI/CD. Because everything lives in packages/api , any frontend
schema: ../api/graphql/schema.graphql documents: src/**/*.graphql generates: src/generated/graphql.ts: plugins: - typescript - typescript-operations - typescript-react-apollo Now, when a developer runs npm run build in the web package, they always use the latest schema from the api package. No more out-of-sync copies. Your CI pipeline (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) should enforce integration. Here is a typical workflow: // DynamoDB datasource const postTable = new dynamodb
How to share schemas, resolvers, and logic across multiple frontends without losing your mind.
