Standalone Components

A fundamental concept in Angular that allows you to build reusable components without the need for NgModule.

Mental Model of Standalone Components

The idea of a building block in Angular where a component functions independently and is not reliant on NgModules, improving code organization and simplicity.

Bootstrapping Standalone Components

A mechanism in Angular that allows you to define and import components, directives, pipes, and services without relying on NgModules.

Compatibility with Existing Code

The process of adapting existing Angular code, which may rely on NgModules, to work with the new Standalone Components feature.
