Reviewer scorecard
“10x faster package installs, native TypeScript, and built-in test runner. It's replacing Node.js in my new projects.”
“Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.”
“Speed is real and measurable. Node.js compatibility is good enough for most projects. The future of JS runtimes.”
“If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.”
“Bun is forcing Node.js to improve. Competition in runtimes benefits everyone. Speed + DX is the winning combination.”
“Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.”
