@nx/react:component

Create a React Component for Nx.

Usage

1nx generate component ... 2
1nx g c ... #same 2

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

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

1nx g @nx/react:component ... 2
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

1nx g component ... --dry-run 2
