Overview of this book

<p>Angular is one of the best frameworks, not only for building web applications, but also for building applications on other platforms such as desktop and mobile. It is packed with amazing web tools that allow developers to become more productive and make the development experience a happier one </p><p>This book will be your practical guide when it comes to building optimized web apps using Angular. The book explores a number of popular features, including the experimental Ivy rendered, lazy loading, and differential loading, among others, in the projects. It starts with the basics of Angular and its tools, which will help you to develop and debug Angular applications. You will learn how to create an SPA using Angular Router, and optimize it by code splitting and Preloading Routes. We will then build a form-heavy application and make forms reactive by using Reactive Forms. After that, we will learn how to build a Progressive Web App, and a server-side rendering app, as well as a MonoRepo app. Furthermore, we will also dive into building mobile apps using Ionic and NativeScript. Finally, we end the book by creating a component library for our application using Angular CDK and then testing it. </p><p>By the end of this book, you’ll have gained comprehensive insights into using Angular, along with hands-on experience in creating intuitive real-world applications.</p>

Introducing observables

Observables are a proposed feature for ES7 and are used for creating a continuous communication channel for various kinds of events. They add that communication channel by passing messages between publishers and subscribers. The unique thing about observables is that they are declarative—that is, once they are defined, they do not emit values unless they are subscribed to. One way of creating observables is by using subject. Let's see how it works by creating a new Subject:

const subject = new Subject();

// emitting two values before subscribing
subject.next(1);

// subscribing
subject.subscribe(value => console.log(value));

// emitting value after subscribing
subject.next(2)

In the preceding example, we have created a new instance of subject and then emitted a value using the next method. Then, we subscribed subject to listen for new values...
