chore(core): nx plugin submission @hyperfrontend/features

[AndrewRedican]

Community Plugin Submission

@hyperfrontend/features

hyperfrontend is a vendor-agnostic micro-frontend runtime: independently deployed "features" run inside sandboxed iframes and talk to their host through a versioned cross-origin handshake with typed contracts, contract validation, lifecycle heartbeats, host-measured presentation modes (inline, dialog, popup), and capability-scoped permissions. @hyperfrontend/features is its SDK, CLI, and dev server — and it ships a first-class Nx plugin surface so an Nx workspace can scaffold, serve, and build these features natively.

The plugin is focused on technology and tooling (micro-frontend authoring) and provides generators and executors (no graph plugin):

Kind	Name	What it does
Generator	init	Declares @hyperfrontend/features in the workspace; wired to run automatically via nx add @hyperfrontend/features.
Generator	feature	Scaffolds a complete hyperfrontend feature project (contract, hostee entry, dev-server config) through the SDK.
Executor	build	Builds a feature's distributable shell package via the SDK.
Executor	serve	Runs the feature dev server for local development.

Manifests: generators.json · executors.json

Author: Andrew Redican, who also maintains the hyperfrontend monorepo the plugin is developed in. Current users: the live demos on the project site (hyperfrontend.dev) are real features built and embedded with this SDK/plugin; adoption beyond the author's projects is early-stage.

Requirements checklist

• ✅ Automated e2e tests in the repository. A dedicated e2e project (apps/package-e2e/features) tests the plugin the way a consumer experiences it: it creates a real Nx workspace with the official create-nx-workspace (pinned to Nx 22.7.8), installs the packed tarball exactly as nx add installs a plugin, then drives the workspace-local nx CLI and asserts on nx list, generator output, and executor behavior. See nx-plugin.spec.ts, nx-plugin-callbacks.spec.ts, and the harness support/nx-workspace.ts. The suite runs in CI as part of the e2e jobs in ci-pr.yml and ci-main.yml, alongside format, lint, typecheck, build, and unit-test-with-coverage gates.
• ✅ repository.url in the plugin's package.json. The published manifest declares "repository": { "type": "git", "url": "git+https://github.com/AndrewRedican/hyperfrontend.git" } — verifiable via npm view @hyperfrontend/features repository.
• ⚠️ @nx/devkit as a dependency. Deliberately not a runtime dependency: the plugin vendors devkit-compatible types and uses the consumer workspace's own @nx/devkit for formatting and installs when present, falling back to built-in equivalents. This keeps the package installable in non-Nx workspaces (it is also a standalone SDK/CLI) without forcing a devkit version onto consumers. Compatibility is not assumed — it is proven by the tarball e2e suite above against a real Nx workspace. Happy to add @nx/devkit as a peerDependency/dependency if the maintainers consider it a hard requirement for listing.
