nx-run-tasks

To run a single build task in an Nx workspace, execute nx run <project>:<task>, for example nx run myapp:build, to automate the target defined in your project.json or package.json.

Running multiple Nx targets simultaneously is done using nx run-many -t <task1> <task2>, with optional filters like -p to scope projects and --parallel to limit concurrency.

Yes, you can run tasks for affected projects by using nx affected -t <task>, which scopes execution to only changed projects and their dependents, saving build and test time.

You can check available tasks by inspecting the output of nx show project <projectname> --json, which details the targets configured in your project.json or package.json files.

You need task definitions in either project.json or package.json files to run Nx tasks, as the system relies on these configurations to identify and execute targets like build, test, lint, and serve.

When running tasks with nx run-many, you can omit specific projects by applying the --exclude filter, ensuring targeted execution while skipping irrelevant projects in your Nx workspace.
