Into the (Nx) Clouds
summary
Live demo showing an Nx monorepo with 112 projects where initial test run takes about 23 minutes and subsequent runs become instant via Nx computation caching and remote cache hits. CI uses GitHub Actions with a custom Nx Cloud action to set SHAs and run affected targets, then flips on distributed task execution to parallelize across agents and cut theoretical CI time toward ~2.5 minutes. Pricing note: 500 free hours/month.
