Modern Angular: Standalone Components

Angular Moderno is a modern implementation of Angular that allows developers to create standalone components that can be easily integrated into any Angular project. In this tutorial, we will cover the basics of creating standalone components using Angular Moderno.

First, let’s start by creating a new Angular project. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

ng new my-angular-project --routing=false --style=scss

Next, we need to install Angular Moderno. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

npm install @angular/moderno --save

Once Angular Moderno is installed, we can start creating our standalone component. Create a new folder inside the src/app directory called ‘standalone-components’, and inside this folder, create a new file called ‘my-standalone-component.component.ts’.

Inside this new file, we will define our standalone component. Here’s an example of how you can define a simple standalone component:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-my-standalone-component',
  template: `
    <div>
      <h1>Hello, I am a standalone component!</h1>
    </div>
  `,
  styles: []
})
export class MyStandaloneComponentComponent {}

Now that we have defined our standalone component, we need to register it with Angular Moderno. To do this, open the src/app/app.module.ts file and import the AngularModernoModule from ‘@angular/moderno’. Next, add MyStandaloneComponentComponent to the declarations array:

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { AngularModernoModule } from '@angular/moderno';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { MyStandaloneComponentComponent } from './standalone-components/my-standalone-component.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    MyStandaloneComponentComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    AngularModernoModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Now our standalone component is registered with Angular Moderno, and we can start using it in our Angular project. To use the standalone component, you can simply add it to any Angular component’s template like this:

<app-my-standalone-component></app-my-standalone-component>

And that’s it! You have successfully created a standalone component using Angular Moderno. This allows you to create reusable components that can be easily integrated into any Angular project.

In conclusion, Angular Moderno provides a modern and efficient way to create standalone components in Angular. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, you can create standalone components that are easily reusable and can be integrated into any Angular project with ease.
