Reviewer scorecard
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“Non-negotiable for any serious component library. Visual testing, docs, and interaction testing in one place.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“Setup can be painful and builds are slow, but the alternative — no component isolation — is worse.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
“The best way to browse and understand a design system. Addons for accessibility and responsive testing are invaluable.”
