[00:00 - 00:08] To complete the overview of NX, we have to speak about disadvantages. One of advantages of NX was that the code is in the same place.
[00:09 - 00:17] At the same time, it's the biggest disadvantage. First of all, when you have a huge app, it means that you will have a huge amount of code in one place.
[00:18 - 00:31] It might be overwhelming. The next disadvantage is that not only you have to learn about Angular how to use it, you will have to learn about NX, and it's a bit demanding learning curve.
[00:32 - 00:40] It's good to know that NX might be too much for your application. If you have small or medium application, you probably are fine without NX.
[00:41 - 00:50] When you have a small app, you are able to organize your code without NX. And introducing NX to that application might over-complicate the whole process.
[00:51 - 00:59] The biggest disadvantage of NX is when you have multiple applications in repository, and you want to upgrade one of them. You're not able to do this.
[01:00 - 01:04] So you have to upgrade every application that you keep in your repo. It might be a problem.
