Overview of this book

Equip yourself with the skills required to create modern, progressive web applications that load quickly and efficiently. This fast-paced guide to server-side Angular leads you through an example application that uses Angular Universal to render application pages on the server, rather than the client. You'll learn how to serve your users views that load instantly, while reaping all the SEO benefits of improved page indexing. With differences of just 200 milliseconds in performance having a measurable impact on your users, it's more important than ever to get server-side right.

Adding Dependencies for the Server App

In order to get our server app working correctly, we need to make sure we load two of Angular's dependencies: zone.js and reflect-metadata.

Our browser app loads these dependencies using polyfills.ts, and for the server app, we will add them to src/main.server.ts.

Another dependency that we need to add is the ModuleMapLoaderModule. This is a third-party module that is needed to make Angular Universal apps work with lazy loading.

We will import two dependencies in src/main.server.ts so that they are imported when the AppServerModule is loaded.

Additionally, we will enable production mode, just like it's done for the browser app in src/main.ts:

  1. Open the newly created file src/main.server.ts.

  2. Add the imports at the top of the file:

    import 'zone.js/dist/zone-node';
import 'reflect-metadata';

import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { environment } from './environments/environment';

  3. Conditionally enable production mode, depending on the environment...
