At work we've just moved away from non relative imports to completely relative paths.

Few reasons for this:

  • Don't have to teach every tool we use how to resolve them
  • Don't have to teach everyone how we're special

This also leads to benefits like less configuration needed and that we can't break anyone's dev experience if their editor can't resolve an import, especially while we still have a mix of Flow/JS and are migrating to TS.
