Nx 17.2 Update
Blog post from Nx
Nx 17.2 introduces several enhancements that aim to improve developer productivity and simplify project configuration, including nearing 4 million weekly NPM downloads. The update features a shift from TypeScript to Rust for performance-critical tasks, enhancing speed without requiring adjustments from users. Module Federation support is optimized with reduced CPU and memory usage and the addition of dynamic federation for React, while Nx Release updates offer a new programmatic API for custom release scripts. Angular 17 and NgRx 17 are now supported, and the platform continues to refine its capabilities for monorepos through initiatives like "Nx Agents" for efficient CI distribution. A new canary release tag allows users to preview upcoming features, and the Nx team plans a January livestream to discuss these updates.
