dvcrn Monorepo Generator
Monorepos are powerful but setting them up right is tricky. This tool scaffolds a proper Turborepo structure with all the config you need.
One command. Zero config. Just works.
Quick Start
npx ai-monorepo
What It Does
- Sets up Turborepo in your project
- Creates apps and packages folders
- Configures shared TypeScript and ESLint
- Sets up workspace dependencies
Usage Examples
# Set up in current directory
npx ai-monorepo
# Custom target directory
npx ai-monorepo ./my-project
Best Practices
- Keep packages focused - single responsibility
- Use internal packages - share code without publishing
- Cache aggressively - Turborepo's strength is caching
- Define clear boundaries - which packages can depend on what
When to Use This
- Starting a new monorepo project
- Migrating from multiple repos to monorepo
- Adding Turborepo to existing project
- Learning monorepo patterns
