Migrating Our Architecture to a Turborepo Monorepo
How migrating 7 distinct SaaS products into a single Turborepo fundamentally changed our team velocity and deployment process.
As Sindra Suite grew to encompass 7 distinct vertical SaaS products, maintaining shared UI components, utility libraries, and TypeScript configurations across 7 different repositories became a nightmare.
We migrated our entire product ecosystem into a single Turborepo, and the impact was immediate.
The Problem with Polyrepos
When maintaining multiple repositories, a bug fix in a shared Button component requires:
ui-components repo.The Turborepo Solution
With Turborepo, our structure looks like this:
/apps/billing
/hrms
/clinic
/packages
/ui
/config
/database
Now, fixing that same Button component happens in /packages/ui. Because of Turborepo's incredibly smart caching and dependency graph, when we run turbo run build, it knows exactly which applications depend on that button and *only* rebuilds those specific applications.
It cut our CI times by 70% and made cross-product refactoring a breeze. We ship faster, with fewer regressions.
