i want to move away from GitHub Actions and I also want to move away from some bespoke monorepo tooling for something that's a better overall orchestrator of 'things'. Dagger scratches some of those itches, or seems to, so I've had my eye on it for a while. Knowing that they're trying to also help me define and use containerized environments - I sort of assumed I'd have to bring those myself.
I'm using Dagger in a monorepo setup (actually several). For the main one, I've gone the route of wrapping the Dagger Go SDK with a custom Go CLI (plus CUE as another centerpiece). For sure, I've been making the team aware of the challenges and rough edges. (of course there are a lot of ways people organize monorepos, we are polyglot with one go.mod but multiple package.json...)
