## Current Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we have today -->
Currently, when we use generator's via the CLI passing the `name` arg
has more than one responsibility:
1. it can be used as a path
2. it can be used as the generator's name (e.g. Component name)
This is not intuitive as if we use via Nx Console because it creates
some ambiguity around the `--name` property which is normally described
as only 2.

## Expected Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we should expect with the changes in this PR
-->
What is expected is that the `name` property should only have the
responsibility of determining the name of the generated module
(Component, Directive etc...).
The new property `path` replaces the `directory` property but fulfils
the same purpose as determining where the module should be created.

This PR removes deprecated code that's been slated for removal in Nx 19
- mentioned as `TODO(v19)` comments.
## Breaking Changes
- **CNW:** `create-nx-workspace` no longer support `--preset=empty` and
`--preset=core`, use `--preset=apps` and `--preset=npm` respectively.
Deprecated in Nx 15.9.
- **Next.js:** `NX_` environment variables are no longer bundled into
Next.js apps, use `NEXT_PUBLIC` instead. Deprecated in Nx 16.8.
- **Webpack, Storybook, Esbuild:** `NX_` environment variables are no
longer bundled into browser bundles, use `NX_PUBLIC` instead. This
removes the possibility of intentional bundling of `NX_` variables.
Deprecated in Nx 18.
- **Cypress:** `cypressComponentConfiguration` generator removed from
`@nx/cypress`, use `configurationGenerator`instead. Deprecated in Nx
16.8.
- **Cypress:** `cypressProjectGenerator` generator removed from
`@nx/cypress`, use `configurationGenerator` instead. Deprecated in Nx
15.9.
- **Expo:** `withNxWebpack` removed from `@nx/expo`, use [metro
bundler](https://docs.expo.dev/guides/customizing-metro/)
(https://docs.expo.dev/guides/customizing-metro/) in app.json instead.
There is a migration to handle this in Nx 19. Deprecated in Nx 15.8.
## Deferred to v20
- **JS:** `classProperties.loose` option removed from `@nx/js/babel`
preset, use `loose` instead. Deprecated in Nx 17.0.
- **ESLint:** Low priority task to "deviations from
@typescript-eslint/recommended" for our lint rules. @JamesHenry will
look at this later before Nx 20, but it is unimportant.
- **React:** component testing does not work with Project Crystal, and
we need the executor + built-in webpack configs to run CT. Will do a
follow-up on this after Nx 19 release. Related issue:
https://github.com/nrwl/nx/issues/21546
- **Next.js:** `withStylus` removal from `@nx/next`, use SASS instead.
It hasn't worked, but we kept the file to throw an error when used.
Deprecated in Nx 17.0.
- **Next.js**: `@nx/next:component` and `@nx/next:page` generators to
not derive the `components` and `app`/`pages` directory. Use `nx g
@nx/next:component apps/myapp/components/button` instead. Deprecated in
Nx 17.0.
- **Webpack:** `isolatedConfig` option removal from
`@nx/webpack:webpack` executor. There is a migration to handle this in
Nx 19. Deprecated in in Nx 17.2.
- **Angular:** `executeWebpackDevServerBuilder` removal from
`@nx/angular/executors`, use `executeDevServerBuilder` instead.
Deprecated in Nx 17.0.
