turborepo

Monorepo builds are accelerated by defining task graphs with inputs and outputs, enabling local and remote caching to skip redundant work, and parallelizing package execution across available cores.

Task dependencies are configured using per-package turbo.json files where you define dependsOn relationships, inputs, and outputs to create a deterministic task graph for orchestrated execution.

Affected builds are triggered using filtering flags like --affected with turbo run, ensuring CI pipelines only execute tasks for packages impacted by recent changes rather than rebuilding the entire workspace.

Code sharing across apps is supported through monorepo package boundaries, with best practices enforced by defining strict dependencies and inputs in turbo.json to prevent cross-package coupling.

Remote caching is optional for CI optimization. Turborepo uses local caching by default to accelerate subsequent runs, while remote caching can be enabled to share outputs across CI pipelines and team members.

Root turbo.json manages global task orchestration while per-package turbo.json files define scoped inputs, outputs, and dependencies, allowing root scripts to delegate to turbo run and maximize parallelism.
