turborepo-monorepo

To set up a Turborepo monorepo, organize your project into apps/ and packages/ directories, configure pnpm-workspace.yaml for package resolution, and use a centralized turbo.json to define build pipelines and orchestrate tasks across the workspace.

The best way to manage cross-package dependencies in a monorepo is using pnpm workspaces and a centralized catalog, which allows you to reference internal packages seamlessly and maintain consistent dependency versions across your apps and shared packages.

Yes, Turborepo caches build outputs across multiple packages by defining task pipelines in turbo.json, enabling faster CI runs by skipping redundant work and reusing cached artifacts when underlying source files have not changed.

To create a new shared package in a pnpm workspace, add a new directory under packages/, initialize its package.json, and follow existing boilerplate conventions so it is automatically recognized by your pnpm-workspace.yaml configuration.

You should use Turborepo instead of standard pnpm scripts to gain centralized task orchestration, parallel execution, and build caching across your workspace, which significantly reduces build times and simplifies complex cross-package dependency management.
