Reviewer scorecard
“Runs everywhere — Workers, Deno, Bun, Node. The middleware system and RPC mode are well-designed.”
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“The portability across runtimes is genuinely useful. Express-like familiarity with modern performance.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“A universal web framework that runs on any runtime is the right abstraction for the multi-runtime future.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
