Solving the `--watch` issue for `serve` target

[simondotm]

Ok, after some research there's no obvious solution for getting the serve target to watch dependent libs within Nx workspaces prior to 15.4.x, and I dont intend to pursue it.

The good news is that for anyone using the plugin in an Nx workspace 15.4.x+, we have a solution with nx watch:

nx watch --projects=<firebase-app-project> --includeDependentProjects -- nx build <firebase-app-project> --clean=false

This command watches the project, and rebuilds it whenever there is a change in the primary project or any of its dependencies. Neato.

Brilliant!

Thank you

I was just running the build command again to get new changes but this is perfect

Thanks for all the hard work with this plugin 🙏

The plugin app generator now uses this solution for serve targets as a default when the host workspace is Nx 15.4.x+
