Schema for internal use only

Please do not extend this schema as it is part of Nx internal usage.

@nx/workspace:preset

Creates applications in a new workspace.

Usage

nx generate preset ...

By default, Nx will search for preset in the default collection provisioned in workspace.json.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

nx g @nx/workspace:preset ...
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

nx g preset ... --dry-run
