Extremely interesting projects here. Not just for typescript but also for Monorepo tooling, Build optimizations, complex webpack setups, performance tuning. For example from the above list I went through cal.com repo and I saw that the way they have organized dev and prod builds and openAPI spec browsing tooling is very good. This is exemplary for anyone wanting to look at good ways to setup a project!

hey there, cofounder of cal.com here. thank you for the flowers -- means a lot. zomars (https://github.com/zomars) has been making a ton of great improvements lately

Thanks for the list. I've decided to dive deep into cal.com. Its tech stacks are exactly same as mine. And thank everyone giving advice!

cofounder of cal.com here, thank you @pototo666 the typescript, tailwind, nextjs, trpc stack has been amazing so far

Hey Peer, wanted to take a chance and say thanks (as a paying customer) for building cal.com, and doing it in public. It's been extremely helpful for me personally, I learned a lot by following your process, your handbook, and your codebase.

The type challenges are a great thing to learn with. Admittedly, they're a bit intense but it's a great way to "expand your awareness".

As a shameless self plug, I'm participating in a 140-day long project to do them all (complete with video explanations) that just started yesterday, if you wanna follow along: https://github.com/type-challenges/type-challenges/issues/21...

Co-founder of Appsmith here. Thanks a lot for mentioning our project.

We love Typescript and chose it to take advantage of static type checking. At Apspmith, since we are a small team, we wanted to reduce management overheads and opted for a monorepo layout. Typescript went a long way in helping us organize the code into modules and let our build scripts compile relevant modules for each changeset.

Having said that, Appsmith has been a learning experience in efficiently running a large project with lots of files. Feel free to dig into our source code to learn from our experiences. :)

https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/src/com... files like this make me feel like my files aren’t too long after all :)

for anybody who doesn't want to click, it's 6400+ lines of code

well, linting rules for imports probably added 30%
