Sick and tired of your Angular components feeling kinda stale? Finally decided that it’s time to liberate your Angular components from the confines of the framework and let them really shine? Then hold on tight, because today is the day you start turning your Angular components into custom elements!
By converting your Angular components into custom elements, you can:
Free at last from Angular cage! : Angular components can now be plugged into any web application regardless of the used framework or library. Imagine the possibilities!
Increase code reuse: Repurpose your components in other applications, with other teams members, or with the global community which not only saves your time and nerves but also helps to maintain code reliability and uniformity.
Improve performance: Sometimes it has more benefits if it is created as a custom element compared to as an Angular component, since it is comparatively lighter and easier to be rendered.
Optimise interactivity: Make your Angular components easily easily integrateable with other components. And the best-part? There are scores of opportunities that our organisations could collaborate on!
Build with the future in mind: Minimizing dependencies on any specific framework will allow you to develop components that can be used in the future even if the world changes a lot.
Are you now willing to take this thrilling ride?
Here are some key steps to transforming your Angular components into custom elements:
Choose the parts: Select the parts that would likely to profit from being changed into custom elements. Think about issues such as design for reuse, recycling, efficiency and compatibility.
Make your components ready: Lastly, rebuild your components to be well architectures and with no dependency on Angular or any of its dependencies.
Use the @Directive class decorator: Ensure perfect target selection by using the @Directive class decorator to outline your new element and set the name of the HTML tag.
Usage of ElementRef and Renderer2 interfaces: Include the ElementRef and Renderer2 into the component to be able to work with host element and DOM.
Test thoroughly: Rigorously test your custom elements to ensure they function as expected in various environments.
Don't let your Angular components be limited by the framework! Unleash their full potential by transforming them into custom elements. You'll be amazed at the level of flexibility, reusability, and interoperability you achieve.
