I'm trying to create a monorepo with these packages:
- a web app created using create-react-app
- a gatsby site
- a library of components etc. that the web app and gatsby app will share (which is my main reason for using a monorepo).
So far I have been unable to set it up so that both the react app and the gatsby site will run.
To show the problem I've set up a minimal monorepo, with just these packages:
- cra created using create-react-app
- gat created with
gatsby new gat https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-starter-default
After the initial setup (with no nohoisting), starting the gatsby site returned this:
ERROR

So then I tried nohoisting everything from each of the packages, adding the following to the package.json of each package:
"workspaces": {
"nohoist": [
"**"
]
},
...And then at the top-level doing lerna clean
and lerna bootstrap
.
At that point, the gatsby site fails with different errors:

webpack compiled with 6 errors
..although cra runs.
By chance I discovered that if I then additionally install gatsby at the top-level of the monorepo using yarn add gatsby -W
then the gatsby site runs, but the cra package fails as follows:
There might be a problem with the project dependency tree.
It is likely not a bug in Create React App, but something you need to fix locally.
The react-scripts package provided by Create React App requires a dependency:
"babel-loader": "8.1.0"
Don't try to install it manually: your package manager does it automatically.
However, a different version of babel-loader was detected higher up in the tree:
/Users/angus/coding/monorepo-trials/cra-gatsby-monorepo/node_modules/babel-loader (version: 8.2.2)
Manually installing incompatible versions is known to cause hard-to-debug issues.
If you would prefer to ignore this check, add SKIP_PREFLIGHT_CHECK=true to an .env file in your project.
That will permanently disable this message but you might encounter other issues.
To fix the dependency tree, try following the steps below in the exact order:
1. Delete package-lock.json (not package.json!) and/or yarn.lock in your project folder.
2. Delete node_modules in your project folder.
3. Remove "babel-loader" from dependencies and/or devDependencies in the package.json file in your project folder.
4. Run npm install or yarn, depending on the package manager you use.
In most cases, this should be enough to fix the problem.
If this has not helped, there are a few other things you can try:
5. If you used npm, install yarn (http://yarnpkg.com/) and repeat the above steps with it instead.
This may help because npm has known issues with package hoisting which may get resolved in future versions.
6. Check if /Users/angus/coding/monorepo-trials/cra-gatsby-monorepo/node_modules/babel-loader is outside your project directory.
For example, you might have accidentally installed something in your home folder.
7. Try running npm ls babel-loader in your project folder.
This will tell you which other package (apart from the expected react-scripts) installed babel-loader.
If nothing else helps, add SKIP_PREFLIGHT_CHECK=true to an .env file in your project.
That would permanently disable this preflight check in case you want to proceed anyway.
P.S. We know this message is long but please read the steps above :-) We hope you find them helpful!

So it seems to me that gatsby and react-scripts are somehow confusing their required versions of webpack..? I would have thought that nohoisting everything should mean that each package would run entirely self-contained, i.e. as if they were individual 'normal' (i.e. not mono-) repos - but this does not appear to be the case..?
I am a noob in webpack and monorepos in general, so probably I am misunderstanding something...? Any insight very much appreciated!
Some versions:
yarn 1.22.10
lerna 4.0.0
gatsby 3.5.0
react-scripts 4.0.3
react 17.0.2
