Going zone-less with Angular's reactive extensions

July 21, 2020 | Aptitude Software's office


Angular's change detection relies heavily on the Zone.js. Zone wraps asynchronous tasks happening in our Angular applications and triggers change detection almost "automagically".

Most of the time it's a great reliever for every Angular developer: we don't have to worry about triggering change detection ourselves - the framework does it for us. Although the Angular team did a great job of optimizing this solution, we subconsciously know that to every solution there are always some caveats. This is sadly not an exception.

This talk presents a few problems we have to face when dealing with Zone.js and change detection and what are the conditions that lead to those. A solution for those problems is also presented: those that come straight from the core Angular and those provided by external libraries.


Outline

  • a quick Zone.js and change detection remainder
  • problems with Zone.js and Angular's change detection
  • possible solutions from the core Angular
  • external libraries as solutions
