Definition of Monorepo

A software development strategy where all code is stored in a single repository. It is a single version-controlled source code tree that contains multiple projects and libraries which can be separately versioned and deployed. Monorepos can also contain different languages, tools, frameworks, and technologies. Monorepos are designed to make it easier to share code and enforce consistent development standards, as well as simplify management of multiple related projects. This is in contrast to a traditional approach in which code is stored in multiple, separate repositories.

Example: The CTO decided the company would use a monorepo for all the company's code including its server-side code and mobile apps.
