Overview of this book

Angular Ivy is the latest rendering engine and compiler introduced in Angular. Ivy helps frontend developers to make their Angular applications faster, better optimized, and more robust. This easy-to-follow guide will help you get to grips with the new features of Angular Ivy and show you how to migrate your Angular apps from View Engine to Ivy. You'll begin by learning about the most popular features of Angular Ivy with the help of simple stand-alone examples and realize its capabilities by working on a real-world application project. You'll then discover strategies to improve your developer workflow through new debugging APIs, testing APIs, and configurations that support higher code quality and productive development features. Throughout the book, you'll explore essential components of Angular, such as Angular Component Dev Kit (CDK), Ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation, and Angular command line interface (CLI). Finally, you'll gain a clear understanding of these components along with Angular Ivy which will help you update your Angular applications with modern features. By the end of this Angular Ivy book, you will learn about the core features of Angular Ivy, discover how to migrate your Angular View Engine application, and find out how to set up a high-quality Angular Ivy project.

Using the ahead-of-time compiler for all development phases

In previous generations of Angular, the ahead-of-time compiler was significantly slower than the just-in-time Angular compiler. Because of this and other factors, just-in-time was the default compiler in all or several phases of development depending on the Angular version. This in turn led to issues because errors were only discovered when doing a production build or—even worse—in the production environment at runtime.

Angular Ivy uses its ahead-of-time compiler by default in all development phases, including while running the development server, when running tests, for server-side rendering, and in the browser, instead of bundling and running the just-in-time compiler at runtime.

This section discusses how the ahead-of-time Angular compiler affects these phases of our development workflow.
