In this tutorial, we're going to enhance a simple Angular button component by applying custom directives, and then we’ll combine these directives into the component directly using Angular's Directive Composition API feature. Let’s get started!
Today, we're building a dynamic checkbox form in Angular using Reactive Forms. We’ll allow users to select multiple values from a list and display the selected values in real time. Then, we’ll take it a step further by adding a "Select All" checkbox so users can toggle everything at once. Let's get started!
Have you ever navigated an Angular app and noticed that the page title stays the same? That’s bad for SEO, accessibility, and user experience! But don't worry, in this tutorial I'll show you how to automatically update the page title based on your routes. And for those using dynamic routes, I’ll show you how to handle dynamic titles too. Let’s jump in!
Ever felt like styling an Angular component is a bit like ordering coffee? You think it's simple, but then you realize there are a million ways to do it! Well, in this tutorial, we're going to break down the many different ways to add styles in Angular components, so you can choose the best approach for your app.
Today, we’re diving deep into theming Angular components. We’ll harness the power of the CSS :host and :host-context selectors, along with CSS custom properties. I’ll show you how to create different layout and color styles for a custom card component and discuss the benefits and drawbacks of each approach.
In Angular, understanding the difference between "view" and "content" is key to working effectively with components. If you've ever tried querying an element and it didn’t work as expected, it’s likely because you were mixing these two concepts up. In this example, we’ll break down the difference between the two, and I’ll show you how Angular’s signal queries make accessing both simple and reactive.
Have you ever felt like some of the dynamic expressions in your Angular component templates are a tangled mess? What if I told you we now have a cleaner, more modern way to handle dynamic classes, styles, and even complex interpolations, without the headache?
In this beginner-friendly tutorial, I’ll guide you through everything you need to know about Content Projection in Angular. You’ll learn how to inject dynamic content in components, create multiple content slots, use advanced techniques, and even implement fallback content for maximum flexibility. By the end, you’ll be able to build flexible, reusable components with ease.
Not all Angular component selectors are created equal! Choosing the right one can impact your app’s flexibility and maintainability. In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through all the component selector options in Angular, helping you decide which one best fits your component. By the end, you’ll know exactly which selector to use and why!
Styling Angular components can be tricky, especially with encapsulated styles. But :host and :host-context let you target a component’s root element and adapt styles based on its context—without global CSS hacks. In this guide, you'll learn how to apply, modify, and control styles using these selectors, making your components smarter and more flexible. Let’s dive in!
Recently, I created a tutorial about how to avoid ::ng-deep when styling Angular components. Many of you didn’t like the techniques I provided so I thought it would be good to follow up to clear up some misconceptions and provide more specific examples. In short, I think you should try to avoid using it because its use is discouraged by the Angular team. In this example, I’ll explain why and I’ll show you some things that I like to do instead.
Did you know that in Angular, your component template doesn't have to be limited to HTML? It can also be an SVG! In this tutorial, we'll explore how to render SVGs as component templates and use Angular features to make them dynamic and interactive.
Is your Angular app loading content users never see? Let’s fix that! In this tutorial, we’ll boost performance with deferred loading and add sleek animations to make components pop as they enter the viewport. Let’s dive in!
Hello, and welcome to this Angular tutorial! Today, we’re diving into one of the most essential topics for forms: validation and error messages. We'll take a basic form and provide several validation messages to help guide users. Plus, we'll level up with additional checks like email validation and even visual feedback for the form's status as a whole.
Hey everyone, welcome back! In this tutorial, we’re diving into something that’s been a challenge in the past for Angular developers, the need to break style encapsulation in certain cases with ::ng-deep. It’s been deprecated for quite some time but there are still times where we need to use it. Or at least there used to be. Now, we have modern solutions that not only replace ::ng-deep but can also make code cleaner and more maintainable.
Hey there Angular peeps, ready to create another animation with me? In this tutorial, we’re going to add a smooth expanding and collapsing animation to our project to make it not just functional but dynamic and polished. We’ll kick things off with the basics and then we’ll take it up a notch with some more advanced concepts towards the end.
Hey there, Angular fans! So, signals are a fairly new concept in Angular but I’m sure many of you out there are using them often. And if you’re anything like me, when using writable signals, you’ve probably found yourself wondering when to use the set() vs. the update() method. Well, in this tutorial, we’re diving into this question to help you understand why you may want to use one over the other.
The new linkedSignal primitive in Angular 19 is a pretty handy new feature. In a previous tutorial we looked at the basics, but in this tutorial, we’ll take it a little further and look at a more advanced feature where we will compare the new and old values of the source signal to provide “smart” signal updates. Ok, let’s get started.
Hey there Angular folks, and welcome back! In this tutorial, we’re tackling an exciting update in Angular: how to modernize your components by migrating from the traditional @ContentChild and @ContentChildren decorators, and QueryList, to the new signal-based contentChild and contentChildren functions.
Angular 19 is here and that means that it’s time to learn some new stuff. In this tutorial, we’re getting hands-on with Angular’s latest signal feature, the linkedSignal() function. It’s a powerful way to create signals that are both writable, and that automatically update based on changes in other signals without improperly using the effect() function. Let’s dive right in and see how this new function can streamline reactive updates in your Angular Apps!
