Nx 19.0 Release!!
Blog post from Nx
Nx 19 marks a return to a six-month release cadence following the significant launch of Nx 18, which introduced Project Crystal, a pivotal enhancement allowing Nx plugins to function without additional configuration. This release includes a new first-party Gradle plugin, expanding Nx's capabilities beyond the JavaScript ecosystem, as well as improvements to the Nx Atomizer to streamline CI pipeline tasks. The update requires a change in environment variable prefixes from NX_ to NX_PUBLIC_ for security reasons, and efforts have been made to enhance the stability and efficiency of issue management. Nx Cloud users report increased speed and cost efficiency, while a new conference, Monorepo World 2024, is announced for October. The post concludes with a personal note of gratitude from Zack, reflecting on community support during a challenging period.
