In this tutorial you will use Nx to build a full-stack application out of common libraries using modern technologies.
|
||
|
||
> Next.js: Nx also has first-class Next.js support. Read more about it [here](https://nx.dev/react/plugins/next/overview)
|
||
|
||
## Create a New Workspace
|
||
|
||
**Start by creating a new workspace.**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npx create-nx-workspace@latest
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You will then receive the following prompts in your command line:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
? Workspace name (e.g., org name) myorg
|
||
? What to create in the new workspace react
|
||
? Application name todos
|
||
? Default stylesheet format CSS
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When asked about 'preset', select `react`, and `todos` for the app name.
|
||
|
||

||

```
|
||
|
||
The generate command added two projects to our workspace:
|
||
|
||
- A React application
|
||
- E2E tests for the React application
|
||
|
||
## Serve the newly created application
|
||
|
||
Now that the application is set up, run it locally via:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npx nx serve todos
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Note on the Nx CLI
|
||
|
||
If you would prefer to run using a global installation of Nx, you can run:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
nx serve todos
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Depending on how your dev env is set up, the command above might result in `Command 'nx' not found`.
|
||
|
||
To fix it, you can either install the `nx` cli globally by running:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm install -g nx
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
or
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
yarn global add nx
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, you can run the local installation of Nx by prepending every command with `npm run`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm run nx -- serve todos
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
or
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
yarn nx serve todos
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
!!!!!
|
||
Open http://localhost:4200 in the browser. What do you see?
|
||
!!!!!
|
||
Page saying "Welcome to Todos!"
|
||
Page saying "This is an React app built with Create React App"
