# component
Create a component
## Usage
```bash
nx generate component ...
```
By default, Nx will search for `component` in the default collection provisioned in `angular.json`.
You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:
```bash
nx g @nrwl/gatsby:component ...
```
Show what will be generated without writing to disk:
```bash
nx g component ... --dry-run
```
### Examples
Generate a component in the mylib library:
```bash
nx g component my-component --project=mylib
```
Generate a class component in the mylib library:
```bash
nx g component my-component --project=mylib --classComponent
```
