Summary

This is a summary of the text about deploying Nx monorepos to Netlify. Here's a neutral, objective, and interesting paragraph summarizing the key points: Netlify makes it easy to connect an existing Git repository to a URL and rebuild and re-deploy your app whenever you push commits. However, this can lead to unnecessary builds if only one project within the monorepo has changed. RareČ™ Matei, a JavaScript Architect, shares his experience deploying a simple React app in a monorepo to Netlify using Nx, a tool that analyzes the dependency graph and ensures that only affected projects are rebuilt. The author explains how to use Nx's "affected" command to identify which projects have changed and deploy only those projects. Additionally, they demonstrate how to set up a deployment workflow using Netlify Build Plugins, builders in Nx, and CircleCI to automate continuous deployments for the monorepo. By combining these tools, developers can ensure that their monorepos are deployed efficiently and effectively, without wasting resources on unnecessary builds.
