Description
The Nx Scalable Architecture Workshop is a comprehensive and hands-on learning experience designed to provide participants with a solid foundation in utilizing Nx as a powerful tool for efficient and scalable development workflows. Whether you are a seasoned developer or new to the Nx ecosystem, this workshop will equip you with the knowledge and skills to harness the full potential of Nx.
During the workshop, participants will explore essential concepts and features such as the Nx CLI, presets, workspace types, task caching, generators and executors. Through interactive sessions and practical exercises, attendees will gain a deep understanding of how to leverage these components to streamline their development processes and maximize productivity.
Participants will also dive into the world of Nx Libraries, Generators, and Executors, which enable the creation of reusable and modular code. By working with these tools, attendees will learn how to maximize code sharing and maintainability across projects, leading to faster development cycles and increased code quality.
The workshop will also cover essential topics like Task Caching, a powerful feature that optimizes eg. build, test and lint execution times by intelligently caching dependencies and results. Participants will discover how to leverage Task Caching effectively to speed up their development iterations.
Through a combination of hands-on exercises, group discussions, and real-world examples, participants will leave the Nx Architecture Pattern Workshop with a strong understanding of how to leverage Nx to build efficient, scalable, and maintainable projects.
