## 📊 Performance Metrics

| Metric                | Before | After | Improvement    |
| --------------------- | ------ | ----- | -------------- |
| **Full Build**        | ~45s   | <15s  | **67% faster** |
| **Incremental Build** | ~30s   | <5s   | **83% faster** |
| **TypeScript Check**  | ~10s   | <3s   | **70% faster** |
| **Dev Server Start**  | ~8s    | <3s   | **63% faster** |

## 🔧 Common Tasks

### Building

```bash
# Full build with type checking
bun run build

# Fast build (skip type check)
bun run build:fast

# Clean build (remove all artifacts)
bun run build:clean
```

### Development

```bash
# Start dev server
bun run dev

# Type check only
bun run typecheck
```

### Troubleshooting

```bash
# Clean all caches
bun run build:clean
rm -rf node_modules/.cache
turbo run build --force

# Rebuild TypeScript
tsc --build --force
```

## 🎓 Learning Path

### Beginner

1. Read [Quick Start](./BUILD_OPTIMIZATION_QUICKSTART.md)
2. Try the build commands
3. Read [Summary](./PHASE_3_BUILD_OPTIMIZATION_SUMMARY.md)

### Intermediate

1. Review [Architecture Diagrams](./BUILD_OPTIMIZATION_ARCHITECTURE.md)
2. Understand TypeScript project references
3. Learn about chunk splitting strategy
4. Read [Full Guide](./BUILD_OPTIMIZATION_GUIDE.md)

### Advanced

1. Study Vite configuration in detail
2. Optimize custom build scenarios
3. Configure remote Turbo caching
4. Profile and monitor builds

## 🐛 Troubleshooting Guide

### Build Issues

**Problem**: Build fails after update

```bash
# Solution
bun run build:clean
rm -rf node_modules/.cache
bun install --force
bun run build
```

**Problem**: Slow incremental builds

```bash
# Solution
find . -name ".tsbuildinfo" -delete
tsc --build --force
```

**Problem**: Type errors

```bash
# Solution
tsc --build --clean
tsc --build
bun run typecheck
```

### Performance Issues

**Problem**: Build still slow

- Check if Turbo cache is working: `turbo run build --dry-run=json`
- Verify TypeScript incremental builds: `find . -name ".tsbuildinfo"`
- Profile build: `VITE_PROFILE=true bun run build`

**Problem**: Dev server slow to start

- Check if warmup files exist
- Verify watch exclusions are correct
- Check HMR configuration

### Cache Issues

**Problem**: Cache corruption

```bash
# Solution
rm -rf .turbo node_modules/.cache
turbo run build --force
```
