# Dev Executor

> Start a development server using frontmcp dev

Starts a development server with hot-reload (`tsx --watch`) and async type-checking. This is a long-running process.

## Usage

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
nx dev my-app
```

## Configuration

```json project.json theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
{
  "targets": {
    "dev": {
      "executor": "@frontmcp/nx:dev",
      "options": {
        "entry": "{projectRoot}/src/main.ts"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Options

| Option | Type | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `entry` | `string` | Entry file path |
| `port` | `number` | Port to listen on |

## Behavior

* **Hot reload**: File changes trigger automatic restart
* **Type checking**: Runs `tsc --noEmit` asynchronously in the background
* **Not cacheable**: Long-running process, no Nx caching
