Ng Forward

Overview

Ng-forward represents an innovative transition tool for developers working with Angular 1.x who wish to adopt Angular 2 conventions without requiring a complete overhaul of their existing codebase. As a collaborative effort among contributors who have previously developed Angular decorator libraries, ng-forward streamlines the process of modernizing Angular 1 applications while ensuring a smooth upgrade path to Angular 2. Although currently in the Alpha phase, it serves as a vital resource for developers looking to enhance their projects with Angular 2's features while still leveraging the familiar environment of Angular 1.

This tool is designed to accommodate various developer needs, whether they're hesitant about upgrading, starting new projects, or actively migrating. With ng-forward, you can begin organizing your code into components and utilizing Angular 2's more modern architecture, thus future-proofing your app's design.
