Do you also migrate towards a monorepo then? Or do you keep it feature based like in the example you showed. It is definitely interesting but I haven’t seen a frontend repo like this. So, it is hard to wrap my head around it.

I will try it for my next project, any tips?

I've used monorepos sometimes, but I think this method of code organisation is not really related to whether you decide to use a monorepo or not. It's about how you organise any package, whether that package is it's own repo or within a monorepo.

A good tip is to think about your features in advance, you should have some idea of what many of the top level feature folders are gonna be before you start your project, but of course you can add new features as you discover their need. Also, don't fear nesting one or more subfeatures inside of a feature when it feels right.
