Turborepo Has a Free Monorepo Tool: Build Only What Changed, Cache Everything, Speed Up CI by 10x

Your monorepo CI takes 20 minutes. Every PR rebuilds every package — even packages you didn't touch. You tried Lerna, it's slow. You tried Nx, it's complex. You just want fast builds. What if your build system knew exactly which packages changed and only rebuilt those — with remote caching for free? That's Turborepo. Quick Start npx create-turbo@latest cd my-turborepo && npm run build How Turborepo Works // turbo.json { "$schema" : "https://turbo.build/schema.json" , "tasks" : { "build" : { "dependsOn" : [ "^build" ], "outputs" : [ "dist/**" , ".next/**" ] }, "test" : { "dependsOn" : [ "build" ] }, "lint" : {}, "dev" : { "cache" : false , "persistent" : true } } } When you run turbo build : Turborepo analyzes your dependency graph Builds packages in parallel (respecting dependencies) Caches outputs — next build of unchanged packages takes 0 seconds Only rebuilds what actually changed The Impact # First build — full run $ turbo build # ✓ @repo/ui: build (2.1s) # ✓ @repo/utils: build (1.
