Nx provides a powerful toolkit to manage multiple Angular applications and libraries in a single repo with dependency graph visualization and affected builds.

Real-world Example

Let’s say you’re building a platform with:

  •  Admin Frontend
  •  User-Portal Frontend
  • Analytics Dashboard

Step 1: Create your Nx workspace

npx create-nx-workspace@latest my-workspace

Step 2: Add your apps

nx generate @nrwl/angular:application admin nx generate @nrwl/angular:application user-portal

Step 3: Add shared libraries

nx generate @nrwl/angular:library ui-components nx generate @nrwl/angular:library auth

Folder structure:

apps/ admin/ user-portal/ libs/ shared/ui-components/ shared/auth/

Bonus: Smarter CI/CD

Use this to run tasks only on apps affected by recent code changes:

nx affected:apps

Final Words

Using Nx to structure a monorepo gives you better control over large Angular projects. It keeps your codebase clean by separating apps and shared libraries, promotes reusability, and makes CI/CD faster with tools like nx affected. As your project grows, this setup helps you manage complexity without losing performance or clarity.

If you’re planning a large-scale Angular project, it’s a smart move to hire Angular developers who are experienced with Nx and monorepo architecture as they can help you build faster, cleaner, and more maintainable applications.
