It's unlikely Hex will support umbrella applications as packages. A Hex
package is supposed to be an OTP application, with an umbrella you have
multiple OTP apps which is incompatible with how Hex works. In my mind
umbrella apps is better suited for end-user projects rather than for
libraries.

If your umbrella children work as individual applications you can publish
them as individual packages if you set up the dependencies correctly for
Hex.
