       | 
       | This sentence "With that, Wayfair decided to split the monorepo
       | into smaller microservices" makes little sense.
       | 
       | The main reason most people have monorepos in the first place is
       | because they have smaller microservices, and to facilitate
       | working on them as a unit.

         | You can certainly have a monolith in a monorepo.

           | Yes, but you would split a monolith into smaller
           | microservices. It's inaccurate language to say you'd split a
           | monorepo into smaller microservices (as GP describes), that's
           | a conflation of two different but related concepts.
