Which monorepo tool should I choose: Turborepo or Nx?

Turborepo is recommended for most projects due to its simplicity and lightweight configuration. Nx is ideal for large-scale enterprise environments requiring deep integration and advanced plugin support.

How does this skill handle dependency management?

It leverages pnpm workspaces and 'shamefully-hoist' settings to ensure efficient disk usage and consistent versioning across all packages in the repository.

Does it include CI/CD support?

Yes, it includes GitHub Actions templates that utilize 'affected' commands to ensure only modified projects and their dependencies are tested and deployed, saving time and costs.

Can I share code between a Next.js frontend and a Node.js backend?

Yes, the skill provides specific patterns for sharing TypeScript types, validation logic, and utility functions through shared internal packages.

Deployment & DevOps

Streamlines multi-package repository architecture using Turborepo, Nx, and pnpm workspaces for optimized builds and code sharing.

About

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for architecting and maintaining high-performance monorepos. It guides developers through the complexities of workspace orchestration, shared dependency management, and build caching strategies using industry-leading tools like Turborepo and Nx. By implementing these patterns, teams can achieve atomic changes across multiple applications, maintain consistent tooling standards, and significantly reduce CI/CD times through 'affected' build logic and remote caching.
