Extracting Server

The @seeds/server package

Make a new packages/server folder

sh
mkdir -p packages/server/src
mkdir -p packages/server/tests

Move the contents of

• packages/ui/src/server into our new src subfolder
• packages/ui/tests/server into our new tests subfolder

sh
mv packages/ui/src/data packages/server
mv packages/ui/src/server/* packages/server/src
mv packages/ui/tests/server/* packages/server/tests

Now we need a very basic packages/server/package.json. Let’s start with this

json
  "name": "@seeds/server",
  "private": true,
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "type": "module",
  "dependencies": {
    "@seeds/models": "workspace:*"
  }

You touched dependencies, so run pnpm i.

Now, our ui pakcage has a dev-server script that seems useful. Let’s bring that over (this time as a dev script, since this package is the server). Bring the lint and test scripts as well.

json
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "tsx --watch --watch-preserve-output src/index.ts",
    "test": "vitest run",
    "test:watch": "vitest",
    "test:ui": "vitest --ui",
    "test:coverage": "vitest run --coverage",
    "lint": "eslint ."
  }

Remember to change that path in the dev script — it should point to src/index.ts

Let’s also add build and dev scripts — copy these straight from the @seeds/models package.

json
{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "tsc -p tsconfig.build.json",
    "dev": "tsc -p tsconfig.build.json --watch --preserveWatchOutput"
  }
}

Copy the tsconfig.json and tsconfig.build.json files from the @seeds/models package into the @seeds/server package.

sh
cp packages/models/tsconfig.json packages/server/tsconfig.json
cp packages/models/tsconfig.build.json packages/server/tsconfig.build.json

Ok we’re not quite done. We need still need external dependencies for this package — it uses express, a logger, etc. Let’s grab anything that doesn’t seem obviously UI-related from @seeds/ui’s package.json

packages/server/package.json

json
  "devDependencies": {
    "@eslint/js": "^9.28.0",
    "@types/cors": "^2.8.19",
    "@types/express": "^5.0.3",
    "@types/node": "^24.0.0",
    "@vitest/coverage-v8": "^3.2.3",
    "@vitest/ui": "^3.2.3",
    "concurrently": "^9.1.2",
    "eslint": "^9.28.0",
    "prettier": "^3.5.3",
    "tsx": "^4.20.0",
    "typescript": "5.7.0",
    "typescript-eslint": "^8.34.0",
    "vitest": "^3.2.3",
    "@seeds/models": "workspace:*"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "cors": "^2.8.5",
    "express": "^5.1.0",
    "winston": "^3.17.0",
    "yaml": "^2.8.0"
  }

And our ui package won’t need some of these server-related things now, so let’s slim that down (dependencies has been removed entirely)

packages/ui/package.json

json
 "devDependencies": {
    "@eslint/js": "^9.28.0",
    "@sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte": "^5.0.3",
    "@tailwindcss/postcss": "^4.1.8",
    "@testing-library/jest-dom": "^6.6.3",
    "@testing-library/svelte": "^5.2.8",
    "@tsconfig/svelte": "^5.0.4",
    "@vitest/coverage-v8": "^3.2.3",
    "@vitest/ui": "^3.2.3",
    "autoprefixer": "^10.4.21",
    "concurrently": "^9.1.2",
    "daisyui": "^5.0.43",
    "eslint": "^9.28.0",
    "jsdom": "^26.1.0",
    "postcss": "^8.5.4",
    "prettier": "^3.5.3",
    "prettier-plugin-svelte": "^3.4.0",
    "sass-embedded": "^1.89.2",
    "svelte": "^5.28.1",
    "svelte-check": "^4.1.6",
    "tailwindcss": "^4.1.8",
    "typescript": "5.8.1",
    "typescript-eslint": "^8.34.0",
    "vite": "^6.3.5",
    "vitest": "^3.2.3"
  }

You can also get rid of the volta object in the ui’s package.json at this time. You touched dependencies, so run pnpm i.

Now run

sh
pnpm check

so that you can find any module import paths that need to be fixed. Once you get it passing, you should now be able to build and test everything across the repo now.

sh
 pnpm build && pnpm test && pnpm check

You may notice that linting doesn’t work yet. Let’s fix that next
