 Everything you need is provided, so you can focus on business use cases instead of choosing the right libraries.

 It's a great solution when you have a lot of code to handle. Not only is organization easy, but you also get features like a computation cache, which will speed up your building time. More about that in the following lessons.

 NX can handle not only Angular code, but it works with other major frameworks, whether it is a frontend or a backend framework.

 I have great news if you plan to use Cypress, Eslint, or Storybook. NX delivers ready-to-be-used configurations, so the only thing you need to do is to type the command in CLI.

In the next lesson, we'll discuss some disadvantages of NX.

## Advantages of NX

Let's summarize the advantages of NX.

**Whole codebase in one place.** NX is using a monorepo approach. It's easy to manage, and onboarding new people is brilliant.

**NX is widely used by many companies**. It's well-established and won't disappear quickly.

**Works great with Angular.** Everything you need is provided, so you can focus on business use cases instead of choosing the right libraries.

**Designed to handle huge codebases.** It's a great solution when you have a lot of code to handle. Not only is organization easy, but you also get features like a computation cache, which will speed up your building time. More about that in the following lessons.

**For free and open-sourced.** You don't need to pay for it, and there's a large community.

**Framework-agnostic.** NX can handle not only Angular code, but it works with other major frameworks, whether it is a frontend or a backend framework.

**Preconfigured external tools.** I have great news if you plan to use Cypress, Eslint, or Storybook. NX delivers ready-to-be-used configurations, so the only thing you need to do is to type the command in CLI.

Advantages of NX

In this short lesson I want to summarize all the advantages of NX.

First of all the code base is in one place so you don't need to handle multiple

and you don't need to switch context every time when you need to fix something.

What's more when you have one repository it's easier to onboard new developers.

NX is widely used by many companies since 2018 it's well established product.

From the very beginning Angela was supported framework by NX.

It was designed to handle huge code bases so if you have some problems with

organization because your app is huge or it's becoming huge you can migrate to

Very important fact about NX is that it's free and open sourced so when you

you can post an issue on GitHub or even fix it by yourself.

No matter if your company has only Angular applications or you have both

you can put all of them in one repository using NX.

The last important advantage of NX is that it comes with pre-configured

So if you plan to use S-Link, Jest, Cypress or any other kind of popular tool

it's probably pre-configured for you so you can start writing code right away.
