Angular Components

Angular components are the fundamental building blocks of Angular applications. They encapsulate a specific portion of the user interface (UI) and its associated logic, making the development process modular and maintainable.

Angular components are created as classes with the @Component decorator. They are responsible for defining:

  • Template: The HTML structure that the component will render.
  • Styles: The CSS rules that style the component's template.
  • Logic: The TypeScript code that handles the component's behavior, data manipulation, and interactions.

The template is the HTML structure that defines how the component will be displayed. It uses Angular's template syntax to bind data to the view, handle events, and create dynamic content.

<div>
  <h2>{{ title }}</h2>
  <p>{{ description }}</p>
  <button (click)="onClick()">Click Me</button>
</div>

You can style your component using CSS rules within the styles property of the @Component decorator or by referencing an external CSS file.

h2 {
  color: blue;
}

The component's logic is written in TypeScript and defines how the component interacts with data, handles events, and manages its internal state.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-my-component',
  templateUrl: './my-component.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./my-component.component.css']
})
export class MyComponent {
  title = 'My Component';
  description = 'This is a description.';

  onClick() {
    // Handle click event logic
  }
}
Do You Know?

Components can communicate with each other using input and output properties, as well as services.

Avoid This

Don't create components that are too large or complex. Break down functionality into smaller, more manageable components.

  • Angular components are the core building blocks of Angular applications.
  • They encapsulate UI elements, logic, and data.
  • Components are created using the @Component decorator and have a template, styles, and logic.
  • Components can interact with each other and communicate through properties and services.
