Nx 20 introduces significant enhancements and features aimed at improving the monorepo experience, with a focus on speed and efficiency for TypeScript projects. Key updates include the adoption of database-driven caching, which offers a faster and more robust solution over the previous file-based system, and the introduction of Project References in TypeScript monorepos to streamline build times by automatically managing dependencies. The release also marks a transition from the @nrwl to the @nx npm scope, facilitating a smoother migration for users with guidance available for updating dependencies. Additionally, Nx 20 integrates the @nx/rspack plugin to support faster builds and extends its functionality to Angular projects with the @ng-rspack/nx plugin. The update also enhances the nx import feature, which simplifies the process of incorporating external projects into Nx workspaces while preserving their git history and recommending suitable plugins. Moreover, the new release eliminates the use of derived directories, requiring users to specify exact paths for generating apps or libraries, and prepares for a revamped versioning logic set to support more complex workspaces across various languages in future releases.
