Next.js Tailwind Turborepo

This is a portfolio monorepo for professionals.

What's inside?

This Turborepo includes the following packages/apps:

Apps and Packages

• @repo/*: Next.js apps with Tailwind CSS
• @repo/ui: a React component library with Tailwind CSS shared by both web and docs applications
• @repo/eslint-config: eslint configurations (includes eslint-config-next and eslint-config-prettier)
• @repo/tailwind-config: tailwind configs used throughout the monorepo
• @repo/typescript-config: tsconfig.jsons used throughout the monorepo

Each package/app is 100% TypeScript.

Getting Started

• pnpm install install & init dependencies

• pnpm dev run dev commands in all modules

• pnpm build build artifacts (used for deployment really)

• Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

• You can start editing the page by modifying apps/web/app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

• This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.

Building packages/ui

This example is set up to produce compiled styles for ui components into the dist directory. The component .tsx files are consumed by the Next.js apps directly using transpilePackages in next.config.js. This was chosen for several reasons:

• Make sharing one tailwind.config.js to apps and packages as easy as possible.
• Make package compilation simple by only depending on the Next.js Compiler and tailwindcss.
• Ensure Tailwind classes do not overwrite each other. The ui package uses a ui- prefix for it's classes.
• Maintain clear package export boundaries.

Another option is to consume packages/ui directly from source without building. If using this option, you will need to update the tailwind.config.js in your apps to be aware of your package locations, so it can find all usages of the tailwindcss class names for CSS compilation.

For example, in tailwind.config.js:

  content: [
    // app content
    `src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}`,
    // include packages if not transpiling
    "../../packages/ui/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
  ],

If you choose this strategy, you can remove the tailwindcss and autoprefixer dependencies from the ui package.

Utilities

This Turborepo has some additional tools already setup for you:

• Tailwind CSS for styles
• TypeScript for static type checking
• ESLint for code linting
• Prettier for code formatting
