SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turborepo helps teams orchestrate and optimize monorepo builds by managing task graphs, caching, and dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

Per-package task execution for parallel builds
Caching task outputs across the monorepo to speed CI and local dev
Flexible configuration through turbo.json and package turbo.jsons to enforce boundaries and reuse patterns

Quick Start

Initialize a root turbo.json and per-package turbo.json files, then run turbo run build to orchestrate tasks across the monorepo.

FAQPage Schema

How do I speed up monorepo builds and cache task outputs across packages?▼

To speed up monorepo builds, use a task runner to orchestrate parallel execution and cache task outputs across packages. This prevents redundant rebuilds and reduces CI and local development time.

What is a dependency graph and how does it manage task execution in a JavaScript monorepo?▼

A dependency graph maps package relationships to determine task execution order in a JavaScript monorepo. It ensures tasks run in parallel when possible and selectively rebuilds only the packages affected by code changes.

How do I configure per-package tasks and root tasks in a monorepo?▼

You configure per-package tasks and root tasks by defining rules in a root configuration file and optional package-level files. This enforces boundaries, specifies inputs, and manages environment variables for reliable builds.

Can I use this monorepo build orchestration for TypeScript projects with multiple apps?▼

Yes, this build orchestration applies to JavaScript and TypeScript monorepos with multiple apps and packages. It parallelizes tasks, selectively rebuilds affected code, and caches outputs to scale efficiently.

What is the best way to optimize CI pipelines for a large monorepo?▼

The best way to optimize CI pipelines for a large monorepo is implementing a task runner with build caching. It skips redundant work by reusing cached task outputs and executing only necessary jobs based on the dependency graph.
