We all knew that the love for Angular keeps increasing in recent times due to its feasible features and flexibility over web development which makes the developer’s life easier. While calling on it, this project demanded we upgrade our project to the latest version of Angular 6, and that’s where it began. Yes! We got a chance to analyze Angular 6 to bring some extended features.

Angular 6.0 Impact

On the go, one of our developers also shared his views and experience about experimenting with angular version 6 features and how to upgrade yourself to angular version 6. Hopefully, it created a colossal impact on our readers and also on us. So, in the end, we took one step forward to take a deep analysis of Angular 6, which is becoming more popular among developers now.

Moving forward, we also initiated a Twitter chat with the industry experts and developers from angular to know which feature they love the most in angular v6/v6.1 and who inspired them most in the angular community. Without limiting with the small circle, we would like to share it with you all.

Before I start sharing the expert’s view, this year is running fast like a roller-coaster, especially for Angular! It keeps surprising us with lots of updated features and the latest versions. With the same excitement, let me share a few more information about the latest release of Angular 6 and its exciting features, and hoping that would excite you too.
