nx-monorepo

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides expert-level Nx monorepo management capabilities for AI-native development teams, enabling efficient workspace orchestration, project graph analysis, and affected-detection workflows, along with advanced caching strategies across large Nx-based repositories.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Project Graph Analysis: Visualize dependencies between projects to optimize builds and tool placement.
• Affected Detection & Code Generation: Quickly identify impacted apps/libs and scaffold changes with generators.
• Caching & Performance: Utilize Nx Cloud and distributed caching to accelerate incremental builds.
• Documentation & MCP Integration: Access Nx-related documentation via MCP queries and stay aligned with official tooling.

Quick Start

Install Node.js and a package manager (npm, yarn, or pnpm) and ensure Nx CLI is available. Then explore a workspace with nx graph, detect affected projects with nx affected -t build, and scaffold new apps or libs with nx g @nx/next:app my-app. For example, run: nx graph --focus=my-app or pnpm nx graph --file=output.json
