Developers want to code. Businesses want to ship.

Most engineering work isn't that. It's:

Skip the tedium. Get to coding.

We built Nx, an open-source build platform to solve exactly these problems. Drop it into any codebase and it immediately maps your project structure, delivering:

  • Lightning-fast builds through intelligent caching and task distribution
  • PRs that fix themselves with AI-powered self-healing that fix broken code and flaky tests
  • Instant code sharing across teams with repo-aware dependency management

Works with any tech stack. Works with any CI provider.

Build Products,
Not Build Systems

Whether you're a startup shipping fast or managing enterprise monorepos with thousands of projects, Nx lets you focus on what matters and deliver faster.

While Coding

The code isn't the problem—it's everything else that pulls you away from it.

Drop Nx into any codebase and it automatically understands your project structure, executing tasks efficiently with intelligent caching and a clean terminal interface that keeps you focused on what matters.

Nx plugins eliminate the complexity of juggling multiple tools and configurations, handling setup and coordination across different technologies so you don't have to.

Your AI coding assistant gets complete workspace context through Nx, understanding project relationships and dependencies to provide more accurate, codebase-specific guidance.

While Scaling

Tangled codebases end up crushing team velocity and product quality.

Nx defines clear project boundaries and leverages monorepo concepts—shared tooling, atomic changes, and coordinated releases—so code stays easy to maintain. Ownership is defined at the project level, while conformance rules enforce organizational standards automatically across your entire codebase.

Nx plugins and code generation standardize best practices and eliminate duplication, while automated updates keep everything current without the overhead of managing separate repositories.

From code to deployment in record time

Every minute wasted is a minute not shipping value to users. Your Time to Green—the critical window from commit to merge-ready PR—relies on having intelligent tooling and seamless automation.

Nx is speed and scalability. Before we only had a few features and CI was slow and now it’s fast with way more features. That’s a huge win for us.
