Advent of Code Gets The Crystal Treatment!
Blog post from Nx
Nx has become a favored tool among developers for its ability to simplify project setups, allowing teams to concentrate on product development while it manages testing, linting, and dynamic CI/CD pipelines. With the advent of the Advent of Code event, which presents developers with daily programming puzzles throughout December, Nx has released an Advent of Code Starter Repo to provide an easy starting point for participants. This year, enhancements like the Nx Project Crystal have further minimized configuration requirements. The release of version 2.0.0 of the create-ts-aoc-starter and ts-aoc-starter packages introduces features like file watching and the ability to add custom data sets, streamlining the process for users. These improvements enable developers to focus on solving puzzles without the hassle of manual setup, as Nx automates the environment configuration, providing pre-configured directories and commands to seamlessly manage daily challenges.
