Angular 11, released on November 14, 2020, by Google, focuses on enhancing the developer experience by addressing community-raised issues and introducing several improvements. Key updates include support for TypeScript 4.0 and webpack 5, which aim to optimize build speed and efficiency. The release also introduces component test harnesses, allowing developers to create more robust test suites, and shifts from TSLint to ESLint for linting, facilitated by a community-developed migration path. Angular 11 enhances Hot Module Replacement (HMR) and improves logging and reporting, making the development process more user-friendly. Additionally, it features automatic font inlining for application speed optimization and previews a new Ivy-based language service to enhance template inference. These updates collectively contribute to a more efficient and streamlined development workflow in Angular applications.
