Is there an existing issue that is already proposing this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

I am following the workspace guide and was a bit surprised that in order to initiate a monorepo mode you must start with standard mode as a first step. On my opinion this is a bit confusing approach.

To enable monorepo mode, you start with a standard mode structure... (c)

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to be able to start a new workspace project with an empty workspace

Teachability, documentation, adoption, migration strategy

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

I would like propose a feature similar to angular empty workspace. I find this approach more reasonable and looking forward for your thoughts.

If you plan to have multiple applications in the workspace, you can create an empty workspace by using the --no-create-application option. You can then use ng generate application to create an initial application. This allows a workspace name different from the initial app name, and ensures that all applications reside in the /projects subfolder, matching the structure of the configuration file. (c) as per https://angular.dev/cli/new
