nx: Execute a target only on projects that have been changed.

$ nx affected --target ${target}

try on your machine

This command is likely part of a command-line interface (CLI) tool called "nx" that is used for developing and managing applications. The "nx affected" command is used to determine which parts of a project have been affected by recent changes.

The "--target" flag allows you to specify the target for which you want to determine the affected parts. The "${target}" is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual target name. A target can refer to a specific project, application, library, or any other defined unit in the project.

By running the "nx affected --target ${target}" command, the tool will analyze the project's source code and build artifacts to figure out which parts have been changed. This information can be useful for various tasks, such as optimizing build and testing processes by only running the necessary tasks based on the affected parts.

Overall, this command helps developers better understand the impact of changes in a project and enables efficient development and testing workflows.
