@angular-devkit/build-angular
Advanced tools
The @angular-devkit/build-angular package is a set of tools and build configurations used to compile and build Angular applications. It is part of the Angular DevKit and is designed to work with the Angular CLI to provide a smooth development experience. It includes features for building, bundling, optimizing, and serving Angular applications.
Building Angular Applications
Compiles an Angular app into an output directory. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory by default.
ng build
Development Server
Builds the application and starts a web server. You can view your application in the browser by navigating to the provided localhost address.
ng serve
Code Optimization
Performs ahead-of-time compilation, tree-shaking, minification, and other optimizations to produce a production-ready application.
ng build --prod
Sass/SCSS Compilation
Allows you to use Sass/SCSS stylesheets with your Angular components, which will be compiled to CSS during the build process.
ng build --style=scss
Internationalization (i18n)
Builds the application with i18n support. It can generate multiple versions of your application, one for each locale you support.
ng build --localize
Webpack is a powerful module bundler that can be used for building Angular applications. It is more generic than @angular-devkit/build-angular and can be used with various frameworks and libraries. It requires more configuration but is highly customizable.
Parcel is a fast, zero-configuration web application bundler that can also be used with Angular. It is simpler to set up than Webpack but may not offer the same level of control for complex build configurations.
Rollup is a module bundler for JavaScript that compiles small pieces of code into something larger and more complex, such as a library or application. It is known for its tree-shaking capabilities and is often used for building libraries. It can be used with Angular but is not as integrated as @angular-devkit/build-angular.
Gulp is a toolkit for automating painful or time-consuming tasks in your development workflow. While it can be used to build Angular applications, it is more of a task runner than a specialized Angular build tool and requires more setup for Angular-specific tasks.
