Setting up an Nx workspace requires initializing the repository structure, generating workspace.json or project.json files, and establishing library and application layouts to ensure consistent monorepo configuration.

Optimizing CI builds with Nx affected commands involves analyzing the dependency graph to only rebuild and test projects impacted by recent changes, significantly reducing pipeline execution time in medium-to-large repositories.

Implementing remote caching for an Nx workspace requires configuring nx.json to connect to a remote cache server, allowing distributed CI agents to share build artifacts and avoid redundant computations across runs.

Migrating an existing project to an Nx monorepo requires moving code into the workspace structure, generating project.json configuration files, and integrating existing build scripts into the Nx task runner pipeline.

Yes, managing dependencies in a large Nx monorepo involves using the Nx dependency graph and module boundary rules to explicitly define how libraries depend on each other, maintaining structural integrity as the repository scales.
