What is the difference between ng-app vs. data-ng-app and x-ng-app?

Today, I am going to share the difference between the some powerful  angularjs prefix like ng-app vs. data-ng-app vs. x-ng-app.

This powerful  prefix are used to decide when we need to use data.* , x.* and ng.*.

This is basic concept and use to validate the HTML template without using the data.* and x.* not possible to validate HTML template.

That means you can say that when we need to validate HTML Template that time we are using data.* or x.* otherwise we are using simple ng.*.

One other things on that:  Some time throw error on a property like ng-app but don't throw an error with data-* or x.* like data-ng-app or x-ng-app.

For the conclusion we can say the only difference regarding HTML 5 validation and the best practice is used to data-ng-app or x-ng-app not ng-app.

KnockoutJs also uses data-* attributes.

nullinjectorerror no provider for httpclient angular 17

In Angular 17 where the standalone true option is set by default, the app.config.ts file is generated in src/app/ and provideHttpClient(). We can be added to the list of providers in app.config.ts Step 1:   To provide HttpClient in a standalone app we could do this in the app.config.ts file, app.config.ts: import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core'; import { provideRouter } from '@angular/router'; import { routes } from './app.routes'; import { provideClientHydration } from '@angular/platform-browser'; //This (provideHttpClient) will help us to resolve the issue  import {provideHttpClient} from '@angular/common/http'; export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {   providers: [ provideRouter(routes),  provideClientHydration(), provideHttpClient ()      ] }; The appConfig const is used in the main.ts file, see the code, main.ts : import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { appConfig } from ...

Why doesn't App Module exist in Angular 17?

Today, I just started exploring Angular version 17 using ng new and found a problem for the newly created project using the command - ng new. The problem is: Path "/src/app/app.module.ts" does not exist while doing ng add in the Angular project. The ‘ng new’ does not generate app.module.ts in the src root folder Angular CLI 17.0.0. From Angular 17 onwards, standalone is now the new default for the CLI . So when we create a new project ‘ app.module.ts ’ file will not create Path " /src/app/app.module.ts ". Run the following command to create the new project including the file ‘app.module.ts’ in your project: ng new AngularMap  --no-standalone Note: Here ‘AngularMap’ is the project name I created. Standalone components are a feature introduced in Angular version 14. Now the changes applied in angular 17 default, the Angular team strongly recommends using them as they are easier to use, and understand.

SOLID Principle - Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP)

The SOLID Principles are the design principles that enable us to manage several software design problems. These principles provide us with ways to move from tightly coupled code to loosely coupled and encapsulated real business needs properly. Also readable, adaptable, and scalable code. The SOLID Principles  guide developers as they write readable, adaptable, and scalable code or design an application. The SOLID Principles can be applied to any OOP program. The SOLID Principles were developed by computer science instructor and author Robert C. Martin. Now, SOLID principles have also been adopted in both agile development and adaptive software development. The 5 principles of SOLID are: 1.       Single-Responsibility Principle (SRP) 2.       Open-closed principle (OCP) 3.       Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) 4.       Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) 5.    ...
