Reviewer scorecard
“CI/CD in the same place as your code. The marketplace has an action for everything. Matrix builds are powerful.”
“Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.”
“YAML debugging is painful but the GitHub integration and free tier for open source make it the default choice.”
“If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.”
“CI/CD integrated with the code platform is the right architecture. GitHub Actions is becoming the standard.”
“Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.”
