NX
NX is a next generation build system with first class monorepo support and powerful integrations. It works well with yarn, React, Angular, and other critical components of an open source project.
Several of our projects utilize NX and they are a company that supports Open Source Software. They have graciously granted Digital Defiance an open source license to NX Cloud. NX partitions a command into smaller tasks and runs them in parallel, in the correct order. Nx Cloud takes it one step further and runs any command across multiple machines, while giving you a consolidated view of the command as if it ran locally.

Studio 3T has graciously given us a 50% discount on all licenses.
