JavaScript monorepo managers

Splitting up large codebases into separate independently versioned packages is extremely useful for code sharing. However, making changes across many repositories is messy and difficult to track, and testing across repositories gets complicated really fast.

Projects like Babel, React, Angular, Ember, Meteor, Jest, and many others develop all of their packages within a single repository.
