Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.

80/100 · ship

Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.

45/100 · skip

Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.

Futurist
80/100 · ship

Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.

80/100 · ship

The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.
