Generate a new TypeScript library.\n- `ts#infra` - Generate a Typescript AWS CDK infrastructure project for your application.\n- `ts#react-website` - Generate a new React based web application using Vite.\n- `ts#react-website#auth` - Add AWS Cognito authentication to your React website.\n- `ts#trpc-api` - Generate a tRPC backend service with Amazon API Gateway/AWS Lambda integrations and [AWS Powertools](https://github.com/aws-powertools/powertools-lambda-typescript) pre-configured.\n- `ts#nx-generator` - Add an [Nx Generator](https://nx.dev/features/generate-code) to a TypeScript project.\n- `ts#mcp-server` - Add a [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server to a TypeScript project.\n- `ts#strands-agent` - Add a [Strands Agent](https://strandsagents.com/) to a TypeScript project.\n- `ts#lambda-function` - Generate a TypeScript lambda function with optional type-safe event sources.\n- `terraform#project` - Generate a new Terraform project.\n- `py#project` - Generate a uv based Python project.\n- `py#fast-api` - Generate a FastAPI backend service with [AWS Powertools](https://github.com/aws-powertools/powertools-lambda-python) pre-configured.\n- `py#lambda-function` - Add a lambda function to an existing python project with optional type-safe event sources.\n- `py#mcp-server` - Add a [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server to a Python project.\n- `py#strands-agent` Add a [Strands Agent](https://strandsagents.com/) to a Python project.\n- `connection` - Connect projects together (e.g. frontend to backend APIs).\n- `license` - Automatically manage LICENSE files and source code headers in your workspace.\n\n## Getting started\n\n@aws/nx-plugin has been designed for gradual adoption from the start, and **you can use as little or as much of it as you need**.\n\nFollow the [Quick Start](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/quick-start) guide to create a workspace and add projects.\n\n### Additional resources\n\n- [Build a Dungeon Adventure Game](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/tutorials/dungeon-game/overview/) to get an in-depth guided tutorial on how to use the @aws/nx-plugin.\n- [Add @aws/nx-plugin to your existing project](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/tutorials/existing-project/)\n\n## MCP Server Installation and Setup\n\nThis package additionally provides an MCP server to help AI assistants use the Nx Plugin for AWS.\n\n1. Ensure you have `node` and `npm` installed ([see here](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm))\n2. Add the server to your MCP client configuration\n\nExample configuration for Amazon Q CLI MCP (`~/.aws/amazonq/mcp.json`):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"aws-nx-mcp\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"-y\", \"-p\", \"@aws/nx-plugin\", \"aws-nx-mcp\"]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nIf you have issues such as `ENOENT npx`, replace the command with `/full/path/to/npx` (use `which npx` to find this).\n\nFor more details, [take a look at the guide here](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/building-with-ai/)\n\n## Community\n\nJoin us on Slack in the [#nx-plugin-for-aws](https://cdk-dev.slack.com/archives/C0AG11EUHM4) channel to ask questions, share feedback, and connect with other users and contributors.\n\n## Contributing\n\nThe main purpose of this repository is to continue evolving @aws/nx-plugin, making it faster and easier to use. Development happens in the open on GitHub, and we are grateful to the community for contributing bugfixes and improvements.\n\nRead our [Contributing Guide](/CONTRIBUTING.md) to learn about our development process, how to propose bugfixes and improvements, and how to build and test your changes to @aws/nx-plugin.\n\n## Code of Conduct\n\nThis project has adopted a Code of Conduct that we expect project participants to adhere to. Please read the [Code of Conduct](/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) so that you can understand what actions will and will not be tolerated.\n\n## License\n\n@aws/nx-plugin is [Apache 2.0 licensed](/LICENSE).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fawslabs%2Fnx-plugin-for-aws","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fawslabs%2Fnx-plugin-for-aws","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fawslabs%2Fnx-plugin-for-aws/lists"}
