Summary

In this project, we build a portfolio application for our GitHub profile. Initially, we learned how to interact with the GitHub API in a new Angular application. We also used Bootstrap CSS and Bootstrap Icons to provide a beautiful user interface for our portfolio application.

We then saw how to convert our Angular application into an SSR application using Angular Universal. We learned how to benefit from prerendering content when users have low-end and slow-performant devices and some of the potential pitfalls of this technique.

We used some of the available SEO techniques that the Angular framework offers to improve the discoverability of our application. Finally, we installed the preboot library to improve the user experience of our application during loading.

In the next chapter, we will learn about the monorepo architecture and how we can manage the state of an Angular application.
