Documented steps From the monorepo root, run npm install <workspace-name> -w <consumer-workspace> to add workspace 'b' as a dependency of workspace 'a' npm detects <workspace-name> is a workspace and symlinks it automatically instead of fetching from the registry The consumer's package.json gains an entry like "b": "^1.0.0" in dependencies (version from the workspace's package.json) Run npm ls <consumer-workspace> to confirm the linkage resolves to the local folder Consume it in code by the declared package.json name via Node module resolution
Known gotchas Without the -w flag npm install may add the dep to the root project instead of the intended workspace npm detects a workspace dependency by its package.json name matching a declared workspace Workspace linking also applies to uninstall, ci, and other install-type commands when the workspace config is set
