ESLint is Now Language-Agnostic: Linting JSON, Markdown, and Beyond
ESLint has added JSON and Markdown linting support with new officially-supported plugins, expanding its versatility beyond JavaScript.
@nrwl/workspace
Advanced tools
The @nrwl/workspace npm package is part of Nx, which is a set of extensible dev tools for monorepos. It provides a consistent dev experience for different tools and frameworks, and it helps with tasks like running tasks, generating components, and managing dependencies within a monorepo.
Creating a new workspace
This command sets up a new workspace. It's the first step when starting a project with Nx.
npx create-nx-workspace@latest myworkspace
Generating code
This command generates a new React component within a specified project in the workspace.
nx generate @nrwl/react:component my-component --project=myapp
Running tasks
This command builds a specific application within the workspace.
nx run myapp:build
Dependency Graph
This command visualizes the dependency graph of projects in the workspace, helping to understand the structure and dependencies of the monorepo.
nx dep-graph
Running affected commands
This command runs tests only for the projects affected by the latest changes, optimizing the CI process.
nx affected:test
Lerna is a tool for managing JavaScript projects with multiple packages. It optimizes the workflow around managing multi-package repositories with git and npm. Lerna is similar to @nrwl/workspace in that it helps manage monorepos but does not provide the same level of integration with various frameworks or the same CLI experience for code generation and task execution.
🔎 Smart, Extensible Build Framework
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 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 instead of rebuilding or retesting the code from scratch.
This, in combination with Nx’s support for config-free distributed task execution, where a command can be split and ran on many machines in parallel, can help teams see up to 10x reduction in build and test times.
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.
Nx is an open framework 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.
Using npx
npx create-nx-workspace
Using npm init
npm init nx-workspace
Using yarn create
yarn create nx-workspace
The create-nx-workspace
command will ask you to select a preset, which will configure some plugins and create your applications to help you get started.
? What to create in the new workspace (Use arrow keys)
❯ empty [an empty workspace with a layout that works best for building apps]
oss [an empty workspace with a layout that works best for open-source projects]
web components [a workspace with a single app built using web components]
angular [a workspace with a single Angular application]
angular-nest [a workspace with a full stack application (Angular + Nest)]
react [a workspace with a single React application]
react-express [a workspace with a full stack application (React + Express)]
next.js [a workspace with a single Next.js application]
Select the preset that works best for you.
If it's your first Nx project, the command will recommend you to install the nx
package globally, so you can invoke nx
directly without going through yarn or npm.
nx serve myapp
to serve the newly generated application!nx test myapp
to test it.nx e2e myapp-e2e
to run e2e tests for it.Even though Nx isn't technology specific, we provide 3 separate flavours of the documentation site to it make it easier for you to get up and running. For every link below, you will be able to select whether you want your examples to be written in React, Node or Angular.
