Reviewer scorecard
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“Open-source Copilot alternative that works with any model. Connect Ollama for fully local AI coding assistance.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“Use your own models, keep your code private, and customize everything. The open-source approach to AI coding.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
“Open-source AI code assistants with model flexibility will capture users who want privacy and control.”
