Speed up! Incremental Compilation with Nx

At Nrwl, we work with some of the world’s biggest companies. By working alongside their teams, we directly experience the problems and pain points they face on a daily basis, especially when it comes to scaling products and code bases across such large enterprises.
These lessons directly influence how we build Nx. We understand the importance of proper DX and how much time and money it can save businesses. Speed is one such important characteristic. The less time developers have to wait for their CI pipeline to finish, or their app to recompile, the less they get distracted and hence can be more focused and productive.
We recently introduced Nx’s computation caching, which together with Nx Cloud addresses precisely that problem. In this talk, Nrwlian Juri Strumpflohner is going to explore how computation caching enables us to go to the next level: implementing incremental compilation in Nx.

great video Juri! I am interested in getting the slides if those are publicly available, we are touching on the same subjects for one of our clients and this would shed some light on CI/CD possible bottlenecks.

I just ran nx serve --with-deps for the first time. I don't see any terminal output stating if any deps were built. I think the output should include a list of built dependencies and state if used from cache or rebuilt.

Is this an Angular and/or Webpack only feature? I can't find any material regarding Nx incremental builds with React and other bundlers such as Vite/Rollup. I've tried implementing it with the Vite plugin executor in a React standalone application with no success.
