1. Independent Component
In Angular, modules are categorized as optional components so you can use standalone components. However, Angular aims to break out of the current state by creating artifacts like pipelines, components, and directives, which are the primary focus of the TypeScript-based Angular framework.
To make NgModules an option, Angular published an RFC, Request for Comments on Standalone Components. These modules aren’t completely broken with the latest updates and are an option to maintain compatibility with the existing ecosystem of Angular-based apps and libraries. In previous versions of Angular, each component required a module connection. Thus, each component must be in the declaration array of the parent module. Otherwise, the application will fail.
2. Forms With Strict Input
Angular closes the default GitHub issue for Angular to implement strict formatting of the Angular Reactive Forms package. This improves on Angular’s modern driver approach to smoothing shapes.
FormControl accepts generic types that pass specific values to transport. However, the Angular team added automatic migrations in v14 to ensure that popular apps are not broken during the upgrade process. The complexity of the API is reviewed regularly, so it must manage changes transparently without isolating the ecosystem. Also, the latest update does not affect template-based forms.
3. Angular CLI Auto Complete
If your Angular CLI set is powerful, you can decide how to create artifacts like components, modules, and directives in your project by providing the commands you need to be productive. However, there are plenty of commands available, but in most cases, you will need to go to the official guide and double-check the commands and command options.
With the introduction of Angular, this is no longer necessary. Angular v provides the latest CLI features to enable live head completion in the terminal.
At first, I had to run ng in the terminal to complete the command. Then type the ng command and press Tab to find all possible options and press Enter to select one. Also, if you are working on an Angular project, there are other autocomplete options available, such as the ng create command option. If you need to run the ng done command for the first time in the terminal.
4. Improved Model Diagnostics
Angular includes improved model diagnostics and compiler matches typescript to protect developers from fundamental errors. Currently, in versions of Angular before Angular 13, the compiler does not issue a warning and development fails when there is a development limiting issue.
You can easily write warnings about basic problems, such as incorrect bidirectional binding syntax or the use of unnecessary operators when a variable does not accept null. Additionally, diagnostic tests can be performed by extending the new private compiler which provides specific warnings or useful diagnostics for user patterns that are not completely fatal.
5. Bazel
Bazel is counted among popular automation testing tools, In Angular, you can use Bazel to build CLI applications faster and more conveniently. Building apps with Bazel has many advantages, including the ability to use the same tools to build backends and frontends, incremental builds and tests, remote builds and caches, and more.
Most developers enjoy incremental releases and testing on Bazel. This eases the process of developing and testing the app. This is because subsequent reconfiguration works at an incremental level and only performs necessary tests instead of retesting every aspect of the web application. This not only makes the developer’s job easier but also reduces the time it takes to build and rebuild for most web developers around the world.
6. Simplify Page Title Accessibility
When developing applications, page titles indicate page content in several ways. In Angular 13, the whole process of adding a title is simplified using the new Route. title property in the Angular router. However, in Angular, no additional import is required when adding a title to a page.
7. Modern Primitives In Angular CDK
The Angular CDK, Component Development Kit, provides a detailed set of tools for developing Angular components. CDK dialogs and menus have been pushed to the stable release of Angular. However, the new CDK primitives allow you to create more accessible custom components.
8. Angular DevTools Released
You can also debug extensions offline using Angular DevTools. This extension can be found under Mozilla Firefox User Add-ons.
9. Optional Injectors
When developing embedded views with Angular, you can now refer to optional injectors via ViewContainerRef.createEmbeddedView and TemplateRef.createEmbeddedView.
10. Built-In Extensions
Angular supports TypeScript and also targets ES2020 by default. This allows the CLI to deploy small code without degrading it. Another cool feature of Angular is that it helps you connect directly to protected component members in templates.
