February 21, 2025 | 0 Minute Read

Trying to explain Angular to my grandma was a mistake... but here we are 😂. In this stand-up comedy bit, Dommy Bytes breaks down the difference between viewChild() and contentChild(), Angular's "view" vs. "content", and why debugging Angular sometimes feels like talking to a passive-aggressive roommate.

If you’ve ever wrestled with ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenChecked, fought with change detection, or questioned your life choices while using Angular, this one’s for you!

Topics Covered:

  • What is viewChild() vs contentChild()?
  • Why does Angular pretend not to see your projected content?
  • Debugging Angular… or why your app silently judges you
  • The real reason we all stick with Angular (Hint: Laziness)
