What is the difference between AOT and JIT Angular?

AOT (Ahead-of-Time) and JIT (Just-in-Time) are two compilation strategies used in Angular.


Ahead-of-Time (AOT) Compilation: In AOT, the Angular application is compiled during the build process and the compiled code is delivered to the browser. The advantage of AOT is that the application runs faster because the compiler has already transformed the code into JavaScript, making it easier for the browser to execute. Additionally, with AOT, the compiler can perform optimizations such as tree-shaking (eliminating unused code) and dead-code elimination. AOT also provides better security by preventing injection attacks, as the compiled code is less susceptible to tampering.

Ahead-of-Time (AOT): Compiles your application and libraries at build time. This is the default starting in Angular 9.

 

Just-in-Time (JIT) Compilation: In JIT, the Angular application is compiled in the browser, during runtime. This means that the application is compiled just before it is executed. The advantage of JIT is that it is easier to debug because the source code is available in the browser. Additionally, JIT makes it easier to develop and test the application, as changes can be made and tested without having to rebuild the application.

Just-in-Time (JIT): Compiles your application in the browser at runtime. This was the default until Angular 8.

 In general, AOT is recommended for production environments, while JIT is more suited for development and testing.


JIT vs. AOT Compilation: 

The Angular compiler converts our applications code (HTML and TypeScript) into JavaScript code before browser downloads and runs that code.

 JIT (Just-in-Time) -

1.         JIT compiles our app in the browser at run-time.

2.         Compiles before running

3.         Each file compiled separately

4.         No need to build after changing our app code and it automatically reflects the changes in your browser page

5.         Highly secure

6.         Very suitable for local development

 

AOT (Ahead-of-Time) -

1.         AOT compiles our app code at build time.

2.         Compiles while running

3.         Compiled by the machine itself, via the command line (Faster)

4.         All code compiled together, in-line HTML/CSS in the scripts

5.         Highly secure

6.         Very suitable for production builds

nullinjectorerror no provider for httpclient angular 17

In Angular 17 where the standalone true option is set by default, the app.config.ts file is generated in src/app/ and provideHttpClient(). We can be added to the list of providers in app.config.ts Step 1:   To provide HttpClient in a standalone app we could do this in the app.config.ts file, app.config.ts: import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core'; import { provideRouter } from '@angular/router'; import { routes } from './app.routes'; import { provideClientHydration } from '@angular/platform-browser'; //This (provideHttpClient) will help us to resolve the issue  import {provideHttpClient} from '@angular/common/http'; export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {   providers: [ provideRouter(routes),  provideClientHydration(), provideHttpClient ()      ] }; The appConfig const is used in the main.ts file, see the code, main.ts : import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { appConfig } from ...

SOLID-Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) Real-Time Example in C#

The SOLID Principles are the design principles that enable us to manage several software design problems. These principles provide us with ways to move from tightly coupled code to loosely coupled and encapsulated real business needs properly. Also readable, adaptable, and scalable code. The SOLID Principles  guide developers as they write readable, adaptable, and scalable code or design an application. The SOLID Principles can be applied to any OOP program. The SOLID Principles were developed by computer science instructor and author Robert C. Martin. Now, SOLID principles have also been adopted in both agile development and adaptive software development. The 5 principles of SOLID are: 1.       Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) 2.       Open-Closed Principle (OCP) 3.       Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) 4.       Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) 5. ...
