Build Caching

  • Local cache: stored on your machine

  • Remote cache: shared across team and CI

  • Cache hit: skip build entirely

  • Cache miss: build and store result

Best Practices

  • Keep shared packages small and focused

  • Enable remote caching in CI/CD

  • Use CODEOWNERS for package maintenance

  • Enforce consistent tooling across packages
