in the root directory.
The repository includes a number of template .env files for different networks. Copy from these to the .env file before serve
to launch app with different network. You can serve any application with yarn nx run <name-of-app>:serve
.
Build
Run nx build my-app
to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/
directory. Use the --prod
flag for a production build.
Run nx serve my-app
for a dev server. Navigate to the port specified in app/<project-name>/project.json
. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Running tests
Run yarn nx run <my-app>-e2e:e2e
to execute the e2e tests with cypress, or nx affected:e2e
will execute just the end-to-end tests affected by a change. You can use the --watch
