title: nx generate unable to create app/library from scratch
body: <p>After some months of work, I faced that I cannot create an app or library anymore using the &quot;nx g&quot; command. I used nx version 13.x, but upgrading to 14.x didn't help.
  F.e.</p>
  <pre><code>nx g lib data-access-whatever
  ENOENT: No such file or directory, scandir ''C:\dev\someproject\packages\data-access-whatever''
  </code></pre>
  <p>So, I have two questions:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>why it requires to have library directory (because I believe it should create it automatically)</li>
  <li>why directory name is &quot;packages&quot;, when it should be &quot;libs&quot;?</li>
  </ol>
  <p>UPDATE #1: Q2 resolved by removing this line from <code>nx.json</code> file:</p>
  <pre><code>&quot;extends&quot;: &quot;@nrwl/workspace/presets/npm.json&quot;
  </code></pre>
