July 2020

Welcome to the July 2020 newsletter about Nx, the open-source toolkit for monorepo development.

Recent Nx Updates

Nx 10 is now available! Nx 10 comes with support for Angular 10, Solution tsconfigs, Webstorm Jest support and more! Read our latest blog post to find out all the details about Nx 10!

For those who need more time before updating to Nx 10, we have a lot of new features to take advantage of in Nx 9.5. Nx 9.5 includes Gatsby support, improvements to babel integration and more support for plugin development via custom layouts, and support for setting a default base branch to branches other than master! Read more about these features in our Nx 9.4 release post.

It is now super easy to add Nx to an existing Angular CLI project without changing the project structure! Read more about the new make-angular-cli-faster command!

Upcoming in Nx

With Nx 10 we have a new set of exciting goals that we will be sharing in the coming weeks. We will also be releasing Nx 9.6 shortly with some features from Nx 10 backported.
