Episode notes

Theatorbo is written in go and distributed as an m p m package. Turbo repos is written in, what? Typescript? In go, actually? Ohoh, yes, sir. And so how how are you able to distribute go without, like, me having go installed on my computer? Do you ship it as like an executable or how does that work? Yethe, there's binaries that we build per operating system and architecture. The turbo package itself is actually a sort of shell package. It has the operating system for the packages that are operating in architecture specific packages which have optional dependencies.

In this supper club episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk with Jared Palmer about Turbo Repo, how it fits in your tech stack, and what it was like being acquired by Vercel.
