Internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n) can be critical for Angular applications that are used throughout a country, continent, or around the globe. As Angular developers, we have several tools at our disposal to accomplish i18n and l10n.

Angular is more than a JavaScript framework, it's a community of caring people who use Angular to build and deploy amazing products and solutions that enrich lives and improve organizational pursuits. For many of us, the community is more important than the technology. Sure, Angular is awesome, but not as awesome as you the community! So how can we connect as a community? We can connect, engage an...

Single Page Applications (SPA) have many advantages, including increased interactivity, responsiveness, and user experience. However, a SPA often requires sending large chunks of JavaScript code to the client. This code must be downloaded and parsed by the client, not to mention the execution time required. There are many strategies to achieve a highly performant single-page application. One of th...

How long does it take to build your application? When you build your application are you rebuilding the entire universe, or are you using incremental build caching? For some applications, build times are perfectly acceptable, and there are no major complexities around building the application. For others, the build time is unacceptable, is impacting the developer experience, and perhaps most impor...

Have you heard of Stackblitz? If not, have you ever clicked the button in the Angular docs to launch a demo of the code and you are instantly transported into an environment that is running the Angular code alongside a slick code editor that resembles VS Code?

Bill loves Angular and his passion is to share his knowledge wi...
