Sharing Types Between Frontend & Backend

Part of the Full Stack Developer Roadmap.

Summary

Defining your data models once (e.g. in a shared package or monorepo) so frontend and backend can't silently drift apart on what a `User` object actually looks like.

How to Learn This

  • 1Set up a shared `types` folder or package used by both your frontend and backend.
  • 2Change a shared type and confirm both codebases immediately show the resulting type errors.
  • 3Learn how monorepo tools (Turborepo, Nx) make this pattern practical at scale.
