From typed forms and standalone components to new primitives in the Angular CDK (component dev kit), we’re excited to share how each feature makes Angular more powerful.

At I/O 2021 we had a blast announcing Angular DevTools and letting you use it in the Adventure world! We talked to hundreds of developers and shared insights about our partnership with TensorFlow.js.

These diagnostics give compile-time warnings with precise, actionable suggestions for your templates, catching bugs before you notice them. A Common Mistake Take the following example, […]

The Angular Compiler (which we call ngc) is the tool used to compile Angular applications and libraries. ngc is built on the TypeScript compiler (called tsc) and extends the process of compiling TypeScript code to add additional code generation related to Angular’s capabilities. Angular’s compiler serves as a bridge between developer experience and run time […]
