SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turborepo provides a structured approach to orchestrate tasks across multiple packages in a monorepo, enabling caching, parallel execution, and dependency-aware builds to avoid re-running work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Per-package tasks with independent caching and parallel execution across apps and packages
  • Dependency graph-based task orchestration, outputs/inputs/env controls, and support for package configurations
  • Remote caching and CI optimization for faster builds and consistent results across environments
  • Package Configurations to tailor framework-specific behavior close to code

Quick Start

Run by defining per-package tasks and a root turbo.json, then execute turbo run <task> to orchestrate builds with caching across the monorepo.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate monorepo tasks with caching across multiple packages?

Monorepo task orchestration with caching is automated by defining per-package tasks and a root turbo.json, then executing turbo run <task> to coordinate builds. It applies dependency graph-based execution, parallel processing, and independent caching across apps and packages.

How does dependency graph-based task orchestration work for JavaScript monorepos?

Dependency graph-based task orchestration works by mapping package relationships to determine execution order and avoid re-running work. It uses dependsOn configurations to sequence tasks, enabling parallel execution where dependencies allow, maximizing build efficiency across the monorepo.

What's the best way to optimize CI builds for a JavaScript and TypeScript monorepo?

The best way to optimize CI builds for JavaScript and TypeScript monorepos is applying remote caching and dependency-aware task execution. By configuring inputs, outputs, and environment variables, it skips redundant work and retrieves cached results across different CI environments.

Can I configure framework-specific task behaviors close to my package code?

Yes, you can configure framework-specific task behaviors using package configurations. This allows you to tailor task definitions, including inputs, outputs, and environment variables, directly within individual packages rather than relying solely on root-level settings.

Why do my monorepo builds keep re-running unchanged tasks and how can I stop it?

Monorepo builds re-run unchanged tasks when caching is not configured or input hashes mismatch. Defining precise inputs, outputs, and environment variables in turbo.json enables content-hash matching, allowing the system to skip redundant tasks and restore cached outputs instantly.

Does Turborepo work with JavaScript and TypeScript projects for remote caching?

Yes, Turborepo works with JavaScript and TypeScript projects to enable remote caching. It stores task outputs remotely, allowing different machines and CI environments to share cached build results, ensuring consistent and faster executions across the entire development workflow.
