Turborepo starter with Expo and tRPC

This is a minimal boilerplate to get started with Expo and tRPC in Turborepo.

What's inside?

This turborepo uses Yarn as a package manager. It includes the following packages/apps:

Apps and Packages

apps/mobile: a react-native app using expo
services/backend: a trpc backend service
config: eslint configurations (includes eslint-config-next and eslint-config-prettier)
tsconfig: tsconfig.jsons used throughout the monorepo

Each package/app is 100% TypeScript.

Utilities

This turborepo has some additional tools already setup for you:

TypeScript for static type checking
ESLint for code linting
Jest test runner for all things JavaScript
Prettier for code formatting

Setup

The Expo app depends on a few things just like any other native app. Please make sure you have all the prerequisits for running an Expo app: https://docs.expo.dev/

Build

To build all apps and packages, run the following command:

cd my-turborepo
yarn run build

Develop

To start the projects development servers just run

cd turbo-expo-repo
yarn dev

Then you can run the app in another terminal tab

cd turbo-expo-repo
// pick one:
yarn ios
yarn android

Remote Caching

Turborepo can use a technique known as Remote Caching (Beta) to share cache artifacts across machines, enabling you to share build caches with your team and CI/CD pipelines.

By default, Turborepo will cache locally. To enable Remote Caching (Beta) you will need an account with Vercel. If you don't have an account you can create one, then enter the following commands:

cd my-turborepo
npx turbo login

This will authenticate the Turborepo CLI with your Vercel account.

Next, you can link your Turborepo to your Remote Cache by running the following command from the root of your turborepo:

npx turbo link
