GENERATORS, EXECUTORS AND PLUGINS - AUTOMATING FOR SPEED AND QUALITY WITH THE NEW NX DEVKIT

- JURI STRUMPFLOHNER

One of the main strengths of Nx is to integrate a variety of different tools in a seamless manner, allowing developers to focus on producing features and business value.

Much of this productivity gain is achieved through automation which we roughly categorize into executors (e.g. build tooling), generators (e.g. code scaffolding), and plugins.

Nx comes with different packages that already have all of these built-in, allowing us to invoke them via the CLI or Nx Console to optimize our daily workflow.

But we can even go further and write our own generators, executors, and plugins to tailor them even more specifically to our workspace needs.

In this talk, Juri teaches us about the newly released @nrwl/devkit and shows us how we can leverage its API to create custom generators, executors, and plugins for our Nx workspace.
