Rspack — Getting up to speed with Nx

Nx is embracing advancements in JavaScript tooling by integrating with Rspack, a faster Webpack alternative developed by ByteDance and Valor Software, seeking to enhance speed and developer experience. Rspack, written in Rust, offers highly parallelized architecture and built-in bundling features, significantly improving compilation performance, as seen in ByteDance's internal applications. To facilitate easy adoption, Nx has developed a dedicated plugin that simplifies the onboarding process for Rspack and React, allowing developers to quickly create production-ready applications. This setup includes a pre-configured environment with React, TypeScript, ESLint, Jest, and Cypress, leveraging Nx's features like affected command computation and remote caching. Existing Nx monorepos can also integrate Rspack for experimentation with React libraries, streamlining the transition to this high-performance bundler.
