To deploy an NX application in production, one must first compile the application using the custom npx build command found in package.json.
To generate a static application, the npm run generate command is used and outputs to the output/public directory, which contains static resources such as HTML and JS files.
A simple static web server can serve these files without needing a Node.js environment, using the serve command to quickly create a web server and serve the output/public directory.
After stopping the web server service and running npm run build, one can observe the compiled application and resources in the output/public directory, suitable for production use with differences due to the lack of environment variable file loading.
By setting necessary environment variables before running the node command, the application's interface address can be adjusted (e.g., changing the port to 3003 with the PORT environment variable) to ensure correct operation and accessibility.
