Nx Monorepo

Fast, first-class monorepo orchestration with Nx for TypeScript at scale.

Why Nx

Nx provides computation caching, task orchestration, and code generation out of the box. It understands your project graph so you never rebuild what hasn't changed.

Scaffold

npx create-nx-workspace@latest meridian --preset=ts

Project structure

apps/
  api/
  dashboard/
libs/
  shared/
  auth/
nx.json
tsconfig.base.json

Key commands

▸nx graph— visualize dependency graph
▸nx run-many -t build— build all affected
▸nx affected:test— test only what changed

Caching

Nx stores task outputs in a local cache. Add nx-cloud to share the cache across CI machines for near-instant rebuilds.

Meridian uses Nx internally for the loader, dashboard, and shared crypto libraries. See the CI/CD recipe for integration.
