Bazel & NodeJS Tutorial: library, test & nodejs_binary (internal & external deps)

In this video we're going to be creating some nodejs targets with Bazel. Bazel is a build tool that is very popular for use in monorepos. We're going to create a nodejs library. We'll write the library and also write some bazel test targets Then we're going to create a web application & create a nodejs_binary target. The web application will have both third party dependencies (express) & depend on our library in the monorepo.

I would love it if you could create a tutorial on using Bazel with a C++ project. Thanks in advance.
