The NgModule is the core concept in Angular – the NgModule API usage is required to create even the simplest “Hello World” application. Yet in 2022 we’ve embarked on the journey of making NgModules optional, fundamentally changing the role of Angular components and re-thinking overall application structure. Why changing something so fundamental, something that was part of Angular (almost) right from the start? Glad you’ve asked – this is exactly the question addressed during the talk! I’m going to cover Angular’s team thinking about NgModules and motivation for the change. Will update you on the progress we’ve been making so far and share our plans for the next steps. ng-conf is a three-day Angular conference focused on delivering the highest quality training in the Angular JavaScript framework. 1500+ developers from across the globe converge on Salt Lake City, UT every year to attend talks and workshops by the Angular team and community experts.
