SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turborepo monorepo build system guidance helps teams coordinate builds, caching, and task execution across many apps and packages, reducing rebuilds and speeding CI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Centralized task graph and caching to speed up workflows across multiple packages.
  • Support for per-package tasks, pipelines, remote caching, and environment handling.
  • Use cases include configuring tasks, sharing code between apps, and debugging cache behavior in large repos.

Quick Start

Run turbo run build --affected to validate changes across the monorepo.

FAQPage Schema
How do I speed up monorepo builds across multiple apps and packages?

Monorepo builds are accelerated by centralizing the task graph and caching task outputs, which reduces redundant rebuilds across multiple apps and packages. This approach speeds up workflows by executing tasks in parallel and skipping previously cached outputs.

What is the best way to run only affected packages in a monorepo?

Running only affected packages in a monorepo is achieved by applying filters to the task pipeline, such as using the --affected flag. This validates changes by executing tasks exclusively for packages impacted by recent code modifications.

How does remote caching work for monorepo task pipelines?

Remote caching for monorepo pipelines works by storing task outputs remotely, allowing team members and CI to share cached results. This prevents redundant task execution by retrieving previously computed outputs based on defined inputs and environment variables.

How do I configure task dependencies in a monorepo pipeline?

Task dependencies in a monorepo pipeline are configured by defining task graph semantics like dependsOn, outputs, inputs, and env. This enforces execution order and ensures tasks run correctly based on package-level configurations and transit nodes.

Why is my monorepo task cache not being reused during CI?

Monorepo task cache misses during CI often occur when environment variables or inputs are not properly defined in the task configuration. Debugging cache behavior requires verifying that env, inputs, and outputs match across local and remote execution environments.

Do I need a specific framework to use monorepo task orchestration?

Monorepo task orchestration does not require a specific framework, but it needs a monorepo structure with multiple apps and packages. It coordinates existing build tasks and pipelines within your current JavaScript or TypeScript repository setup.
