View Transition API Integration in Angular—a brave new world (Part 1)

If you previously wanted to integrate view transitions into your Angular application, this was only possible in a very cumbersome way that needed a lot of detailed knowledge about Angular internals. Now, Angular 17 introduced a feature to integrate the View Transition API with the router. In this two-part series, we will look at how to leverage the feature for route transitions and how we could use it for single-page animations.

[UPDATE] Configuring Lazy Loaded Angular Modules

Making our Angular modules configurable is essential in building a reusable architecture. But in the recent past, Angular presented us with its new moduleless future. How does it look now? How can we configure lazy-loaded components? Let’s have a look at how we provide our configurations directly.

Implementing Smart and Presentational Components with Angular: Condensed Angular Experiences – Part 4

In this article, we will explore how to apply the concept of smart and presentational components with Angular. We will choose a complex-enough target to see all aspects in action, yet understandable and within the scope of this article. The goal is to teach you how to use this architecture in your way. For that, we will iterate through different development stages, starting with the target selection and implementing it in a naive way. After the first development, we will refactor that naive solution into smart and presentational components that are reusable, refactor-friendly, and testable.

Angular OnPush – A Change Detection Strategy Revealing Mistakes in Your Code

When optimizing the performance of Angular applications, many developers directly associate Angular’s OnPush change detection strategy with it. But, if you don’t know exactly how OnPush works under the hood, it will quickly teach you what you are doing wrong the hard way.
In this article, we’ll look deeper into how the OnPush strategy affects Angular’s change detection mechanism and which pitfalls we should avoid at all costs.

Master Web Component Forms Integration – with Lit and Angular

When a company has cross-framework teams, it is a good choice to use Web Components to build a unified and framework-independent component library.
However, some pitfalls are to consider when integrating these components into web forms.
Therefore, for a better understanding, we will look at two possible approaches and try to integrate them into an Angular form as an example.

About Smart and Presentational Components, Architecture Overview & Concepts: Condensed Angular Experiences – Part 3

Modern web technologies enable us to write huge business applications that are performant and easy to use. But with time comes complexity to our projects naturally. That added complexity sums up and makes further app development slow and cumbersome. This article discusses how a simple architectural concept can make every app more maintainable, faster to develop, and extendable in the long run.
