Learning Angular 2 Directives (Video 7)

This video tutorial covers the decomposition of a sample Angular application into components. It begins with setting up the project and identifying potential components from a static HTML page. The tutorial then demonstrates the iterative process of creating, importing, and organizing components such as headers, sidebars, and dashboards. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clean folder structure and adhering to naming conventions. The video concludes with a summary and a preview of the next topic, which involves implementing new features.

What is the first step in decomposing an Angular application into components?

• Identifying potential components by examining the layout

• Writing all components in a single file

• Creating a new Angular project

• Using external libraries for styling

What is the purpose of the main.ts file in the project setup?

• To manage user authentication

• To hold all HTML code

• To serve as the startup file

• To store CSS styles

Why is it important to maintain the original CSS classes on components?

• To ensure the application runs faster

• To simplify the HTML structure

• To reduce the number of components

• To maintain the depth of the DOM tree and prevent CSS rule breaks

What is the iterative process mentioned in the context of component creation?

• Writing all components in one go

• Skipping the creation of smaller components

• Gradually refining components until they are of a manageable size

• Creating components in a single step

What should be done after creating a new component file?

• Write a new CSS file for it

• Ignore the new component

• Import the component and reference it in the directives property

• Delete the original HTML code

What is a recommended practice when organizing components in a project?

• Structuring components into folders based on responsibilities

• Using random names for components

• Avoiding the use of folders altogether

• Placing all components in a single folder

What is the benefit of suffixing files with their content type?

• It complicates the folder structure

• It reduces the number of files

• It helps in identifying the purpose of each file

• It makes the files larger
