Turborepo
Have you ever heard about turborepo?
"Turborepo is a high-performance build system specifically designed for JavaScript and TypeScript codebases."
With turborepo it is easy to scale a codebase and create monorepo.
Monorepo allows to include multiple repos and packages in one repository. Without turborepo features, such an approach was inefficient, but turbo allows to speed up the build process.
Turborepo is using the successor of webpack, mainly the turbopack.
Turbopack is noted for its fast bundling capabilities, leveraging Rust's performance and a highly efficient caching mechanism to reduce build times significantly.
Integrating Turbopack with Turborepo can enhance the development workflow, especially for projects that utilize monorepos. Turborepo focuses on optimizing the build process across multiple packages or applications within a monorepo by efficiently managing tasks like linting.
Check the docs below for more details:
How the monorepo looks like?
Let me present this approach in my latest product which utilize it.
Like you can see in the screen above, we have two significant folders:
- apps,
- packages.
In apps folder are listed projects and separate codebases.
In packages, I can include separate libraries.
When to use monorepos?
Monorepos, repositories, are used to manage multiple related projects within a single repository. In my project, I will make a SaaS in the apps folder and attach docs in retype.
How to create a monorepo?
Use the below command to install turbo:
npm install turbo --global
Use the below command in your project directory to create monorepo:
npx create-turbo@latest

I can really recommend the below channel.. why?
Cause I learned a lot from it in an easy way:
Tweet of the week
AI gives every student a 1-on-1 tutor.

I hooked up GPT-4 Vision & OpenAI Whisper/TTS to a camera for a 5min prototype.
Showed it a math problem, and it explained it.
Imagine giving a better version of this to *every* student in the world.
