Angular is experiencing a resurgence with the introduction of standalone components and new features, particularly focusing on a new primitive called Signals. Signals, inspired by SolidJS, provide a reactive API for managing component state and responding to changes, allowing for more dynamic and efficient updates in Angular applications. The framework now incorporates Signals for various functionalities, such as state management, computed values, and effects, which run when signal values change. Additionally, Angular has introduced a signal-based approach for passing data into components, enhancing the existing @Input decorator by making it reactive and more versatile. This evolution extends to other decorators like @ViewChild and @Output, as well as a reactive alternative to ngModel for form data binding. These updates reflect a broader effort by the Angular team to improve the developer experience by leveraging Signals, and developers are encouraged to explore the current RFC for more insights into the ongoing changes.
