Angular 17 tentative release date is set for November 8, 2023. Be ready for a few good surprises along the way, but for now, I can share that the new control flow features will be available with that version.
There was a control flow RFC a few months back. The Angular team received valuable feedback from it and decided to go with the following syntax:
The above syntax can be used instead of ngIf
and its awkward else
syntax. Also visible in the above example is @defer, a way to lazy-load a component based on different criteria.
Of course, we’ll cover all this in the newsletter in November once all these features are officially released. In the meantime, mark your calendar: November 8 is the date.
