Reviewer scorecard
“CI/CD in the same place as your code. The marketplace has an action for everything. Matrix builds are powerful.”
“Simple turbo.json config, powerful caching, and Vercel remote cache integration. The easiest monorepo build tool to adopt.”
“YAML debugging is painful but the GitHub integration and free tier for open source make it the default choice.”
“Less complex than Nx with good-enough features for most monorepos. The remote cache with Vercel is seamless.”
“CI/CD integrated with the code platform is the right architecture. GitHub Actions is becoming the standard.”
“Build caching and parallel execution are table stakes for monorepos. Turborepo makes them trivially easy.”
