nx: Execute a target on a specific project.

$ nx run ${project}:${target}

try on your machine

The command nx run ${project}:${target} is typically used in Angular applications and it is executed using the Nx command line tool.

Explanation of the command:

nx is the command line tool by Nrwl (pronounced "Narwhal"), which is a set of extensible dev tools designed for monorepos.
run is a sub-command of Nx that allows you to execute various tasks defined in your project.
${project} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual project name. In an Nx workspace, a project represents a specific application or library within the monorepo.
${target} is also a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the desired task to run within the specified project.

For example, if your project has an Angular application called "my-app", and you want to run the "serve" target/task for that application, you would execute the command: nx run my-app:serve.

This command will trigger the specified task, in this case, serving the Angular application defined in the my-app project. The task can be anything defined in your project configuration, such as building, testing, running custom scripts, etc.
