TypeSpec in the same repository or a different one?

I'm experimenting with TypeSpec for a service we're providing, implemented in node. Should I include the TypeScript definitions in the implementation repository, including it in the build and keeping everything in sync, or should I use a separate repository and generate a node library to be referenced?

Thanks all.

I think TypeSpec doesn't particularly care whether you put the spec in another repo, same repo but different package in a monorepo setup, or in the same package. I would probably avoid a separate repo just because it will introduce a fair amount of friction when iterating on the spec and iteration together, but either of the other two would be fine.

Thanks. Has anyone written up adding to an existing package?
