  1. Let’s use turbo in app repos too
  2. We should document every fix/improvement that lands on frontend-base that would make sense to backport to master, and open backport PRs only once they land
  3. “BOTH”: tutor-mfe should support both a built-in frontend-site, and the ability to specify custom, externally managed frontend-site repositories (or, separate SPAs)
