Example of how to dynamically load components in Angular v9

Overview

Loading components dynamically is an exciting feature introduced in Angular 9, particularly with the Ivy rendering engine. This approach allows developers to create more efficient applications by loading components on demand, rather than bundling everything together in a single package. As applications grow and users have different needs, dynamically loading components becomes increasingly essential for optimizing performance and improving user experience.

In this context, developers can adopt a more modular approach, building separate components for various user roles and only loading those that are necessary. This not only reduces the overall bundle size but also speeds up load times, making applications more agile and responsive.

Features

  • Dynamic Component Loading: Easily load components on demand, reducing initial load time and improving performance.

  • Lazy Loading Support: Take advantage of lazy loading features, ensuring that only the necessary components are downloaded when required, rather than at startup.

  • Improved User Experience: Provide tailored experiences by serving only the required components for different user profiles, enhancing responsiveness and usability.

  • Seamless Integration with Angular CLI: Start creating dynamic components effortlessly with the Angular CLI, requiring minimal setup for implementation.

  • Utilization of Angular’s Ivy: Leverage the new rendering engine for better performance and smaller bundle sizes compared to previous versions.

  • ComponentFactoryResolver: Use this powerful tool to resolve and instantiate components dynamically, ensuring flexible application architecture.

  • ViewContainerRef: Gain fine control over where new components are attached in the application’s UI, improving modularity.

  • Promise-based Loading: Implement a simple interface for loading components that returns a promise, allowing for asynchronous loading strategies.

Typescript

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
