💎Angular Gems of June, 2024
📰Angular Forms new unified control state change events
Angular 18 introduced a new feature in its Reactive Forms library called unified control state change events. The AbstractControl class (the base class for FormControl, FormGroup, and FormArray) now has a new events: Observable<ControlEvent<TValue>> property. This property is an observable, that emits for value, status, pristine or touched changes. Davide Passafaro' s article starts with the basics of Reactive Forms, binding them with the template, understanding validation and the disabled state. Then, he explains how to use the new events observable to track the form's state.
📰Synchronized Web Storage with Signals
In this article, Pierre Bouillon shows how to make the Web Storage in the browser reactive using Angular's Signals and the Storage Event of the Web Storage API.

In his blog post, Chau Tran explains how to provide a single input with default values for a component, when the component has many inputs with default values.
