Angular VS astro

Angular (full-featured, opinionated)

Angular 20.2.0-next.2 Release Notes

One common use case is running initialization logic at the app startup using the APP_INITIALIZER injection token token. While APP_INITIALIZER is now deprecated, the recommended replacement is the provideAppInitializer function.

This article will guide you through building a modern, AI-powered e-commerce application using Angular for the front end and leveraging the capabilities of Google's Firebase AI Logic (formerly Vertex AI in Firebase). We will explore how to implement intelligent features by referencing code snippets from the "Bytewise" e-commerce application, a practical example I created, available on GitHub.

Some of you asked me to create an example of integration between Angular and one of Firebase's latest features: "hybrid on-device".

During a recent discussion with some colleagues about TypeScript decorators, we ended up deep-diving into Angular.dev and stumbled upon something interesting — the @Attribute decorator.

I’m the kind of developer who likes to stay in the loop of the technologies they love, even though they may not be working with them right now. And I love Angular.

I recently discovered a static site generator called Astro, which supports many syntaxes but the .astro is a nice mix of TypeScript and JSX-like syntax. Content can use MDX which is like Markdown but with {JSX} style markup for variables and etc. The static components are used very similar to React, with familiar import statements and patterns. It is extremely easy to pick up. Best of all, it has plugins to support all sorts of other interactivity, so you can create interactive 'islands' of content using React or Preact or SolidJS or Vue etc. That way you have most of your content statically generated, and then the dynamic parts can be done from the client side.

Best of all, if you use simple unchanged files for other dynamic stuff like JSON etc, you can just generate those on build and serve those files in the host directly as the 'response' to a simple REST request, which is sometimes overlooked despite being the most fundamental form of a REST API.

This year is all about vibing and no, not just in the beach sense. AI is transforming how we write code, how we learn new tools, and how we think about building things on the web. In this post, I’ll walk you through how I built my first landing page with Windsurf AI, using Astro, deployed via Cloudflare Workers. I’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and how I’d approach things next time.

The site uses Astro (https://astro.build/) and the code blocks are generated using Shiki (https://shiki.style/). As Shiki generates the HTML and CSS at build-time instead of requiring runtime JS like alternatives like Prism (https://prismjs.com/#basic-usage), it's actually quite performant. I think it's unlikely that a couple of hundred lines with some empty spans in is going to cause performance issues – imo it's more likely to come from some silly JS somewhere.

But it has a CMS? The author said that replaced WordPress sites with Astro, and on https://astro.build/ I see a comparison to WordPress.

Astro brings a friendly UI to maintain and update the sites? Like the WordPress panel and editor.

Many people I know use https://astro.build/ to create impressive landing pages for products or validation. It is fully static by default which is impressive.

For our storefront, we chose Astro.js. If you haven't heard of Astro, prepare to be amazed. Its core philosophy is "Ship less JavaScript," which translates directly to incredible page load speeds and a fantastic user experience.

Hackfolio is a modern, minimal, and fully responsive portfolio template built with Astro. Designed for developers and creators, it helps you showcase your skills, experience, and projects with a clean and professional look.

If you’ve just started creating your website with Astro and have no clue how to improve your SEO, you’re not alone here.
