Nx: Your Blissful Path to OSS Angular Library Management
summary
Nx shows how to manage Angular libraries at scale by using ng-packagr for Angular Package Format outputs, generating secondary entry points with nx generate @nx/angular:entry-point, converting each entry point into an Nx project via a convert-to-project generator, and using Nx caching and the affected graph to run only changed tests. Examples: 440 entry points (NG Extension) motivated the approach, build times drop from ~2s to ~38ms with cache, and a plugin plus library are published together with automated release and changelog.
