Angular Code Generators and Scaffolding
Wednesday, 10:30 AM MDT - Windsor
This session provides guidance on creating and using custom code generators using the tools provided by Angular and Nx Dev Tools. If you are a fan of the Angular CLI or want to become more familiar with its capabilities this session is for you. The CLI and generators help your team to create consistent code using your own recipes and patterns.
The same engine that drives the Angular CLI can be used to create and run your custom code generators. These generators can create parts of or entire applications, libraries, services, components, and infrastructure code within a few seconds. The This session will demonstrate:
- how to identify candidates for code generation or scaffolding
- how to create a generator template
- how to use existing templates (i.e., schematics) to compose templates
- how to run/execute your generator using the CLI
- how to test and debug your code generators
