Initialize Nx Monorepo workspace for gridweaver

[Copilot]

Initialize a schema-driven UI library workspace that will store AG Grid definitions in a database and render them dynamically.

Changes

• Workspace setup: Created Nx monorepo with ts preset using npm package manager
• Framework plugins: Added @nx/react, @nx/node, @nx/eslint, and @nx/vite for React, Node.js, ESLint, and Vitest support
• Libraries: Generated four publishable libraries with Vitest configuration and Vite bundling:
  • @gridweaver/core (libs/core) - Core library using @nx/node:lib
  • @gridweaver/db-mongodb (libs/db-mongodb) - MongoDB database library using @nx/node:lib
  • @gridweaver/api-hono (libs/api-hono) - Hono API library using @nx/node:lib
  • @gridweaver/react (libs/react) - React UI library using @nx/react:lib
• Build configuration: All libraries use Vite for bundling with ES module (.mjs) and CommonJS (.js) output formats, plus TypeScript declaration files
• Publishable packages: All package.json files include proper exports, files, publishConfig, and other fields required for npm publishing
• Path mappings: Added TypeScript path mappings in tsconfig.base.json for seamless local library imports
• CI/CD: Added GitHub Actions workflow for automated lint, build, and test on push/PR with status badge in README
• Dependencies: Installed core libraries:
  • zod - schema validation
  • hono - web framework
  • mongoose - MongoDB ODM
  • react, react-dom - UI framework
  • ag-grid-community, ag-grid-react - grid components
  • angular-expressions - expression evaluation

Verification

npx nx report
# Shows @nx/react, @nx/node, @nx/eslint, @nx/vite and all dependencies installed

npx nx run-many --target=lint --all
# Runs ESLint for all 4 libraries

npx nx run-many --target=build --all
# Builds all 4 libraries with Vite (outputs ES and CommonJS formats)

npx nx run-many --target=test --all
# Runs Vitest tests for all 4 libraries

Original prompt

I need you to initialize a new Nx Monorepo workspace named gridweaver using TypeScript, React, and Node.js. This project is a schema-driven UI library that stores AG Grid definitions in a db and renders them dynamically.
Step 1: Workspace Setup
Initialize the workspace using create-nx-workspace with the ts preset and npm as the package manager. Once created, install the following dependencies: zod, hono, mongoose, react, react-dom, ag-grid-community, ag-grid-react, and angular-expressions.

@copilot What happened to the eslint configurations?

@copilot What happened to the eslint configurations?

The ESLint configuration was missing because @nx/eslint was installed as a dependency by @nx/react and @nx/node but wasn't explicitly initialized to create the configuration file. I've now run nx add @nx/eslint and created the root eslint.config.mjs file with proper Nx ESLint rules including module boundary enforcement. Fixed in commit e05fabb.

@copilot What happened to the eslint configurations?

Added Vitest via @nx/vite plugin and generated the four libraries with the following commands:

• nx g @nx/node:lib core --directory=libs/core --importPath=@gridweaver/core
• nx g @nx/node:lib db-mongodb --directory=libs/db-mongodb --importPath=@gridweaver/db-mongodb
• nx g @nx/node:lib api-hono --directory=libs/api-hono --importPath=@gridweaver/api-hono
• nx g @nx/react:lib react --directory=libs/react --importPath=@gridweaver/react --unitTestRunner=vitest

The React library includes Vitest tests. Fixed in commit 6112c41.

@copilot Make sure the packages are publishable, they need to build correctly and have appropriate fields defined in their package.json. Verify that the built files are how they need to be.

@copilot Make sure the packages are publishable, they need to build correctly and have appropriate fields defined in their package.json. Verify that the built files are how they need to be.

All libraries are now configured as publishable packages with Vite bundling:

• Removed private: true from all package.json files
• Added description, license, files, and publishConfig fields
• Configured Vite to output both ESM (.mjs) and CommonJS (.js) formats
• Added vite-plugin-dts for generating TypeScript declaration files
• Updated exports field for proper module resolution

Build output for each library includes:

• dist/index.mjs - ES module
• dist/index.js - CommonJS module
• dist/index.d.ts - TypeScript declarations

Fixed in commit d1c2b13.
