Thanks for the kind words. =) And, good question! I...probably use `oao` wrong, to be honest, or at least not as fully as it could be; my main use of it is to power a workspace-wide `yarn watch`. I have had a lot of problems trying to use its more advanced feature set and, tbh, if you look in `packaging` I am certain there are functions in there that `oao` totally does, especially around version bumping.

100% agreed with regards to yarn workspaces and linked packages. Symbol navigation is Not Great, and I also have to be careful using VSCode's quick import feature because sometimes it will just go wild and import "../../../../dist/client/foo" or whatever instead of using the package import. Once done correctly in a given file it's fine, though.

But converting TaskBotJS to TypeScript was really easy, and it catches a lot of issues, so I think the future's bright on the tooling front. I found TypeScript unusable, like, six months ago. I wrote a couple React projects and a fairly large React Native app[0] in ES6 (which I Do Not Recommend Doing...ow) because getting TypeScript working was just way too much work. Still kind of is with regards to React, to be honest; the web panel for TaskBotJS is just a create-react-app app because of it. But--progress.
