# @nrwl/angular:setup-mfe

Generate a Module Federation configuration for a given Angular application.

## Usage

```bash
nx generate setup-mfe ...
```

By default, Nx will search for `setup-mfe` in the default collection provisioned in `workspace.json`.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

```bash
nx g @nrwl/angular:setup-mfe ...
```

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

```bash
nx g setup-mfe ... --dry-run
```
