Managing Component State the Sane Way with Freddy Montes - AiA 426
Freddy Montes joins the adventure to discuss how he and his team manage state in their Angular components.Many development teams instinctively reach for a solution like ngrx when they're building their angular apps and start seeing complex state. However, there's a lot of boilerplate and it's often overkill for small to medium apps. Freddy talks about his journey into managing state for his components using observables and basic state libraries.LinksHow to manage component state in Angular using @ngrx/component-storePicksCharles- Premium Podcast Feeds | Devchat.tvCharles- Hiro.fmCharles- ThriveCartCharles- ZapierCharles- TrainingPeaksCharles- Built BarFreddy- Couch to 5K Runner Freddy- Weiser LockBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/adventures-in-angular--6102018/support.
