In a detailed exploration of improving Ionic Angular app performance, Matt Netkow reviews tips shared by Stephen Fluin from the Angular team, focusing on optimizing app startup performance and bundle size. By applying these tips to a human resources demo app called Ionifits, Netkow demonstrates substantial improvements in the app's Lighthouse performance score. Key strategies include using the source-map-explorer tool to analyze and reduce app bundle size, configuring size budgets in the angular.json file to manage app size thresholds, implementing lazy loading for better performance, and keeping Angular dependencies up-to-date using the Angular CLI's update process. Additionally, the article suggests adding a Browserslist file to optimize build processes and reduce app build times, providing practical insights and examples to enhance the overall performance of Angular apps.
