@nx/angular:host

Create an Angular Host Module Federation Application.

Usage

nx generate host ...

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

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

nx g host ... --dry-run

Examples
