FAQPage Schema
How do I run Nx tasks like build, test, lint, and serve across a monorepo workspace?

Run Nx tasks across a monorepo workspace by executing standard commands like nx run <project>:<task>, which orchestrates builds, tests, linting, and serving targets with safe defaults and clear guidance.

What is the best way to execute multiple targets across different projects in an Nx workspace?

Executing multiple targets across projects in an Nx workspace is best handled using run-many and affected workflows, allowing reliable multi-project task orchestration for builds and tests.

Does Nx task orchestration work with package.json scripts or only project.json configurations?

Nx task orchestration adapts to both project.json and package.json scripts, ensuring reliable execution of configured targets and maintaining compatibility across various workspace setups.

Can I use Nx affected commands to run tasks only on changed projects in my workspace?

You can use Nx affected workflows to run tasks exclusively on changed projects within your workspace, safely orchestrating builds and tests by leveraging standard Nx tooling patterns.

Why should I use standard Nx tooling for task orchestration instead of custom scripts?

Standard Nx tooling minimizes DevOps friction by providing safe defaults and recommended flags for task orchestration, streamlining the execution of builds, tests, and lint targets across projects.
