# remove
Remove an application or library
## Usage
```bash
nx generate remove ...
```
```bash
nx g rm ... # same
```
By default, Nx will search for `remove` in the default collection provisioned in `angular.json`.
You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:
```bash
nx g @nrwl/workspace:remove ...
```
Show what will be generated without writing to disk:
```bash
nx g remove ... --dry-run
```
### Examples
Remove my-feature-lib from the workspace:
```bash
nx g @nrwl/workspace:remove my-feature-lib
```
Force removal of my-feature-lib from the workspace:
```bash
nx g @nrwl/workspace:remove my-feature-lib --forceRemove
```
