SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Turborepo provides orchestration for monorepos by coordinating task execution, caching outputs, and sharing work across apps and libraries to speed up builds and CI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • High-performance task orchestration across multiple packages (apps and libraries)
  • Per-package configurations with turbo.json and extends for tailored builds
  • Efficient caching of task outputs and selective rebuilding with --affected and --filter

Quick Start

Invoke turbo run to orchestrate the monorepo build across packages and pipelines.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate monorepo builds to speed up CI pipelines?

You can orchestrate monorepo builds by configuring per-package turbo.json tasks and dependencies to coordinate task execution and cache outputs, which optimizes CI pipelines and speeds up local development across apps and libraries.

How does caching work for multi-package task execution?

Caching stores task outputs across packages, allowing selective rebuilding using --affected and --filter flags. Remote caching shares this work across CI and local environments to ensure fast builds without repeating completed tasks.

Can I configure specific build pipelines for individual apps and libraries in a monorepo?

Yes, you can define per-package configurations using turbo.json. This allows you to specify tailored build pipelines, tasks, and outputs for individual apps and libraries, and supports extends for shared configurations.

What is the best way to run affected tasks and filter package builds in a monorepo?

The best way to run affected tasks is by using --filter and --affected flags during task execution. This selectively rebuilds only the necessary packages based on changes, leveraging cached outputs to optimize the monorepo build.

Do I need a turbo.json file to define tasks and dependencies for each package?

Yes, turbo.json is required to enforce per-package task definitions. You configure tasks, dependencies, and outputs within this file to ensure correct task coordination and efficient caching across the monorepo.

Why are my monorepo CI builds slow despite having multiple packages configured?

Monorepo CI builds may be slow if task execution is not properly cached or coordinated. By applying turbo.json configurations for dependencies and outputs, and enabling remote caching, you can share work and skip redundant tasks to speed up builds.
