Michael Hladky joins the adventure to discuss how he's gotten a 60% performance increase using push pipe and related techniques.Many developers can get by without this technology, but Michael explains how to pull the push pipe into your code and what that looks like compared to Zone.js and the default stack in Angular.Panel
Lars Brink joins the adventure to discuss how he tests routed Angular features using the RouterTestingModule. He explains what it is and why it's not as well documented as it could be.The panel then takes him through testing other parts of an application using Spectacular and other tools to make sure that Angular applications behave as expected.Panel
Joaquin Cid is an Argentinian developer who has built a plugin for NGXS state library that allows developers to connect to Firebase and have their queries automatically import into NGXS. Further, it also allows them to define actions that will update their datastore when triggered.
The new Adventures in Angular panel dives into the ins and outs of using NGXS and Firebase to build rich applications with Angular and these technologies.Panel
Chuck dives into the 3 essentials for getting the next successful outcome you want in your career. Whether that's something simple like a raise or something more complex like going freelance, you can achieve it by working on 3 main areas.First, building skills. The most obvious type of skills you'll need is technical skills. However, don't neglect your people skills and your organizational skills as well since you're often paid for how you work with people and enhance their work and how you put your work together in the most efficient ways.Second, building relationships. Often other people will be able to help you find the opportunities or will be the ones to make the decisions that impact your ability to get the outcome you want. Having good relationships is key to having good outcomes.Third, building recognition. Being known for being valuable in important ways allows you to leverage the skills you have to build better relationships and create opportunities to get what you need to get the outcomes you want by giving people what they want. A podcast is a great way to do all three. Chuck explains exactly how that works in this podcast and goes deeper as part of the Dev Influencers Accelerator.Panel
Tarang Khandelwal found himself in the unenviable position where he needed to be able to dynamically choose which component to load dynamically.He did this by passing in a string key that determined the component that would load in its place. However, given that not all components and component signatures are the same, this is more complex than it seems.Tarang explains to Chuck what this entails and why you might need a setup like this in the first place.Panel
Chuck explains what he taught Nathan last week when we asked how to get hired at a FANG (Facebook Apple/Amazon Netflix Google) company. Essentially, it boils down to how to build the skills and knowledge needed to pass the interview. How to build the relationships to get into the door and have the interviewer want you to succeed. And how to build the reputation that has the company wanting you regardless of the outcome.
This approach also works for speaking at conferences, selling courses, and other outcomes as well as it's the core of building a successful career as an influencer.Panel
Andrei Gatej joins the adventure and discusses some less well known features of the Angular Router with Charles Max Wood.They walk through some of the features of nesting routes and how to debug issues when your routes don't bubble up the tree the way you expect.Andrei also explains how redirects and router outlets might not have been what Chuck thought they were.Panel
Freddy Montes joins the adventure to discuss how he and his team manage state in their Angular components.Many development teams instinctively reach for a solution like ngrx when they're building their angular apps and start seeing complex state. However, there's a lot of boilerplate and it's often overkill for small to medium apps.Freddy talks about his journey into managing state for his components using observables and basic state libraries.Panel
Chuck was on a strategic call with one of his potential coaching clients talking about cryptocurrencies and realized that this is one of the major reasons that people want to become influencers. Or, rather, that many people aspire to make a difference and/or make money and the best way to do that is to become the person people go to for what you do.So, how do you become the first person people think of when they think of that thing you know how to do? Let Chuck tell you.Panel
Have you ever thought how nice it'd be to write your apps for desktop and mobile alongside the web? Richard Sithole joins the adventure to discuss how to pull a desktop app and mobile app into your repo using electron and capacitor to extend the functionality to new platforms.It turns out that a single repo cross-platform app isn't a total pipe dream.Panel
