Provides a visual interface and AI‑enhanced workflows for managing Nx and Lerna monorepos directly inside editors.
Nx Console offers an integrated UI inside VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and other editors to simplify working with Nx and Lerna monorepos. It enriches editor AI (e.g., Copilot, Cursor) with workspace context, visualizes project graphs, and presents task‑running shortcuts.
npx create-nx-workspace@latest my-workspace to create a new one or npx nx init to add Nx to an existing repo).Nx: Generate (UI), Project Details View, or Workspace Graph from the command palette or context menus.npx -y nx-mcp
This starts the Model Context Protocol server that feeds workspace metadata to AI models.npx in the workspace.Stay focused and productive right in your editor.
Developers use both command-line tools and user interfaces. They commit in the terminal, but resolve conflicts in Visual Studio Code or WebStorm. They use the right tool for the job.
Nx Console is that tool. It helps developers stay in the flow, provides visual workflows, enhances your AI chats and more.
You can download Nx Console from the following places:
Nx Console enhances your editors AI features by providing relevant context to the large language models powering VSCode and Cursor. Automatically teach AI about your workspace architecture, generators and feed it up-to-date nx docs!
Nx Console comes with an MCP server for both, VSCode and Cursor.
You can also install the MCP server separately from the Nx Console extension via the nx-mcp NPM package. More about that here. Learn more in the Nx docs.
Nx Console provides seamless integration with the Project Details View (PDV). You can learn more about your project, the available tasks and detailed configuration information. With the PDV in Nx Console, you can run tasks or navigate the task graph with just a few clicks!
Learn more about the Project Details view on nx.dev
Nx Console makes it easier to run generators through our interactive Generate UI. It automatically parses the schema for any generator and provides autocomplete, validation and dry-run previews as you type.
You can launch the Generate UI via the Nx: Generate (UI) command or through the context menu in the file explorer. Paths will be automatically prefilled! Learn more about the Generate UI on nx.dev
Nx Console improves the experience of using Nx Cloud by giving you an overview of current CI Pipeline Executions and showing notifications when CI is done or an error occurs. No more refreshing GitHub forever, just keep working and Nx Console will let you know once your PR is ready!
Additionally, Nx Console helps by guiding you through the Nx Cloud onboarding process, right in your editor.
Learn more about the Nx Cloud Integration on nx.dev
Nx Console presents an overview of your workspace from an Nx perspective. You can browse projects, their targets & configurations in the Projects view. Run available targets or create shortcuts for frequent commands in the Common Nx Commands view.
Nx Console visualizes the Nx project & task graphs right in your editor. It knows which file you're working on, so you can easily open the graph focused on that specific project. Also, with the tight integration into your editor, you can run tasks or explore the files that cause project dependencies with a single click.
To use Nx Console, make sure you're in an Nx or Lerna workspace and have Node.js installed. If you're not using Nx yet, learn more here: Intro to Nx
You can create an Nx workspace by running the following command:
npx create-nx-workspace@latest my-workspace
To install Nx into an existing repository, simply run
npx nx init
The latest version of Nx Console supports all Nx versions starting at Nx 15. For older versions, we cannot guarantee compatibility or full functionality. However, we welcome contributions! If you encounter specific issues with older versions, please consider submitting a PR. Of course, if you discover any problems with newer versions of Nx, please report these issues to help us improve Nx Console.
If you're looking to upgrade your version of Nx easily, refer to the Nx migrate documentation.
Please read the contributing guidelines. Pick one of the issues from the good first issue list to get started.
The Node interpreter under Languages & Frameworks > Node.js needs to be configured to use the Node executable within the WSL distribution. You can read more on the official Jetbrains docs page.
