Reviewer scorecard
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“Eliminates 90% of server state management boilerplate. Caching, refetching, and mutations just work.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“Solved server state management so well that it changed how React apps are built. The devtools are excellent.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
“TanStack Query's multi-framework support and the broader TanStack ecosystem are defining modern web data management.”
