- Nx and Node -
-- The power and scalability of Node has helped pave the way - for increasingly complex and sophisticated applications. -
-- Using Typescript in Node applications helps dev teams code - more consistently, avoid compatibility issues, and it can be - used to build libraries for NPM. Unfortunately, the setup is - often tedious and time consuming, and any mistakes in your - configuration can grind your work to a halt. -
-- Nx is a smart, fast and extensible build system that helps - you develop, test, build, and scale Node applications. -
-- Nx is a set of tools that provides a standardized and - integrated development experience for all of your Node - workspaces. It takes care of things like Typescript - configuration and library sharing, so you can focus on - other, more interesting development tasks. In addition, Nx - provides... -

-- Tools -
-- Nx provides excellent tooling for Node in many ways, - including: -
--
-
- - - TypeScript - {' '} - extends JavaScript by adding types and saves you time by - catching errors and providing fixes before you run code. - -
- - - Jest - {' '} - is a zero-config JavaScript testing framework that - prioritizes simplicity. With robust documentation and a - feature-full API, Jest is a great solution for JS developers - looking for a powerful, modern testing toolkit. - -
- - - ESLint - {' '} - uses static analysis to identify problems in your code, many - of which are fixed automatically in a syntax-aware manner. - ESLint is highly configurable; customize your linting - preprocess code, use custom parsers, or write your own - rules. - -
- Integrated Development Experience -
-- Nx provides a modern integrated dev experience. Nx adds a - high-quality VS Code plugin which helps you use the build - tool effectively, generate components in folders, and much - more. -
-- Nx also has optional free cloud support as well as GitHub - integration. Share links with your teammates where everyone - working on a project can examine detailed build logs and get - insights about how to improve your project and build. -
