This PR removes the `/nx-api` pages from `nx-dev`. They are already redirected from `/nx-api` to either `/technologies` or `/reference/core-api` URLs. e.g. `/nx-api/nx` goes to `/reference/core-api/nx` and `/nx-api/react` goes to `/technologies/react/api` **Changes**: - Remove old `nx-api.json` from being generated in `scripts/documentation/generators/generate-manifests.ts` -- this was used to generate the sitemap - Remove `pages/nx-api` from Next.js app since we don't need them - Remove workaround from link checker `scripts/documentation/internal-link-checker.ts` -- the angular rspack/rsbuild and other workarounds are gone now that they are proper docs in `map.json` - Update Powerpack/Remote Cache reference docs to exclude API documents (since they are duplicated in the Intro page) -- `nx-dev/models-document/src/lib/mappings.ts` - All content in `docs` have been updated with new URL structure **Note:** Redirects are already handled, and Claude Code was used to verify the updated `docs/` URLs (see report below). The twelve 404s links were updated by hand. ## Verification Report https://gist.github.com/jaysoo/c7863fe7e091cb77929d1976165c357a

# JavaScript and TypeScript
|
|
|
|
Nx is a general-purpose build system and a general-purpose CLI. It works with JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C#, Go, etc.. The core plugins Nx comes with do work best with JavaScript or TypeScript.
|
|
|
|
TypeScript is a great choice for many teams, but not for everyone. If you want to use Nx with JavaScript, simply pass `--js` to all generate commands, as follows:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx g @nx/react:app apps/myapp --js
|
|
nx g @nx/react:component apps/myapp/src/lib/mycmp --js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can build/test/lint/serve your applications and libraries the same way whether you use JavaScript and TypeScript. You can also mix and match them.
|
|
|
|
Regardless whether you use JavaScript or TypeScript, you will have a `tsconfig.base.json` file at the root of the workspace. **It's not used to build the applications and libraries in the workspace. It's only used to improve the editor experience.**

## Interested in building and distributing TypeScript packages?
|
|
|
|
You might want to check out the `@nx/js` package which comes with advanced TypeScript support, including [SWC](https://swc.rs/) and more. Find out more in the [plugin documentation](/technologies/typescript/api).
