Angular Aria is launching in Developer Preview, providing you headless components built with accessibility as a priority, that you can style your way
Your AI agents can use Angular’s MCP Server, now with seven stable and experimental tools — allowing LLMs to use new Angular features from day one
The Angular CLI integrates Vitest as the new default test runner. Vitest support is now stable and production ready.
New Angular applications are not including zone.js by default anymore!
