SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turborepo simplifies and accelerates monorepo task orchestration by coordinating per-package tasks, caching, and remote caching, reducing redundant work across multiple apps and packages.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Define per-package tasks with turbo.json to coordinate builds, lint, tests, and type checks.
  • Enable caching and remote caching to speed up workflows and CI by reusing outputs.
  • Optimize CI by running only affected packages and leveraging package configurations for customization.

Quick Start

Create a basic Turborepo workflow by defining tasks in turbo.json and package.json to orchestrate builds.

FAQPage Schema
How do I cache build outputs across packages in a monorepo?

You can cache monorepo build outputs by defining per-package tasks in turbo.json and enabling remote caching to reuse outputs, which speeds up local workflows and CI by avoiding redundant work across multiple apps and packages.

What is the best way to orchestrate tasks like lint and tests in a JavaScript monorepo?

Orchestrating monorepo tasks involves coordinating per-package builds, lint, tests, and type checks through turbo.json configurations, which schedules tasks efficiently and reduces redundant work across multiple apps and packages.

Can I optimize CI pipelines to run only affected packages in a TypeScript monorepo?

Yes, you can optimize CI pipelines by applying cache-aware workflows that run only affected packages, leveraging package configurations and remote caching to skip redundant builds and tests across your TypeScript monorepo.

How do I configure environment variables for cache-aware workflows in Turborepo?

You configure environment variables by defining env handling rules in turbo.json alongside per-package task definitions, ensuring cache-aware workflows correctly track environment changes and invalidate cached outputs when variables are modified.

Does Turborepo work with existing package.json scripts in a JavaScript monorepo?

Yes, Turborepo works with existing package.json scripts by orchestrating per-package tasks defined there through turbo.json configurations, coordinating builds and tests while applying caching and remote caching to speed up workflows.
