AOT compilation

What is AOT compilation
What are the advantages of AOT

Every Angular application consists of components and templates which the browser cannot understand. Therefore, all the Angular applications need to be compiled first before running inside the browser. 

Angular provides two types of compilation: 

  • JIT(Just-in-Time) compilation
  • AOT(Ahead-of-Time) compilation



    • In JIT compilation, the application compiles inside the browser during runtime. 
    Whereas in the AOT compilation, the application compiles during the build time. 

    The advantages of using AOT compilation are: 
  • Since the application compiles before running inside the browser, the browser loads the executable code and renders the application immediately, which leads to faster rendering.
  • In AOT compilation, the compiler sends the external HTML and CSS files along with the application, eliminating separate AJAX requests for those source files, which leads to fewer ajax requests.
  • Developers can detect and handle errors during the building phase, which helps in minimizing errors.
  • The AOT compiler adds HTML and templates into the JS files before they run inside the browser. Due to this, there are no extra HTML files to be read, which provide better security to the application.

    • By default, angular builds and serves the application using JIT compiler:

    ng build 
    ng serve

    For using AOT compiler following changes should be made:

    ng build --aot 
    ng serve --aot

    Building Block of Angular

    The main building blocks for Angular are modules, components, templates, metadata, data binding, directives, services, and dependency injection. Below mentioned are the main building blocks of an Angular application: - Modules  group components logically within the project. Angular basically is a modular framework where every block of functionality is encapsulated within a module and exposed outside within the project as a service. There are two types of modules one is encapsulating block of function within a single component and the other is encapsulating block of function within single or group of components by providing exposure in a unified manner via an interface. Components  help in controlling UI block and also it provides data and logic. It represents a unique "View" and "View Model" in MVVM pattern or exactly like what Controllers do in Angular 1. The "V...
