What is Nx?
🔎 Smart, Extensible Build Framework
Distributed Graph-Based Task Execution and Computation Caching
Nx is smart. It analyzes your workspace and figures out what can be affected by every code change. That's why Nx doesn't rebuild and retest everything on every commit--it only rebuilds what is necessary .
Nx partitions commands into a graph of smaller tasks. Nx then runs those tasks in parallel, and it can even distribute them across many machines without any configuration.
Nx also uses a distributed computation cache. If someone has already built or tested similar code, Nx will use their results to speed up the command for everyone else.
Holistic Dev Experience Powered by an Advanced CLI and Editor Plugins
Nx helps scale your development from one team building one application to many teams building multiple frontend and backend applications all in the same workspace. When using Nx, developers have a holistic dev experience powered by an advanced CLI (with editor plugins), capabilities for controlled code sharing and consistent code generation.
Rich Plugin Ecosystem
Nx is an open platform with plugins for many modern tools and frameworks. It has support for TypeScript, React, Angular, Cypress, Jest, Prettier, Nest.js, Next.js, Storybook, Ionic among others. With Nx, you get a consistent dev experience regardless of the tools used.
