What is Routing Guard in Angular?

A) Angular's route guards are interfaces which can tell the router whether or not it should allow navigation to a requested route. They make this decision by looking for a true or false return value from a class which implements the given guard interface.

B) Angular's route guards are components that handle routing logic and navigation in an Angular application.

C) Angular's route guards are built-in directives that control the layout of routes in an Angular application.

D) Angular's route guards are CSS classes used to style the navigation links in an Angular application.

A
Routing guards in Angular are interfaces that determine whether navigation to a route should be allowed or not, based on the result returned by a class implementing the guard.

What is a module, and what does it contain?

A) An Angular module is a set of Angular basic building blocks like components, directives, services etc. An app can have more than one module.
B) An Angular module is a JavaScript library used to enhance the functionality of HTML elements.
C) An Angular module is a type of web component used to create complex UI elements.
D) An Angular module is a set of external styles and fonts used to customize the appearance of an app.

A
Routing guards in Angular are interfaces that determine whether navigation to a route should be allowed or not, based on the result returned by a class implementing the guard.

What are pipes?

A) A pipe takes in data as input and transforms it into a desired output.
B) A pipe is a type of data structure used to store and manipulate data in Angular applications.
C) A pipe is a component responsible for handling network requests and responses in Angular applications.
D) A pipe is a security feature in Angular that prevents unauthorized access to certain routes.

A
In Angular, pipes are used to transform data before displaying it in the view. They provide a convenient way to format and manipulate data. You can chain pipes together in potentially useful combinations. You can write your custom pipes. Angular comes with a stock of pipes such as DatePipe, UpperCasePipe, LowerCasePipe, CurrencyPipe, and PercentPipe.

What is the minimum definition of a component?

A) The absolute minimal configuration for a @Component in Angular is a template.
B) A component must have a template, a selector, and a constructor.
C) A component must have a template and a constructor, but the selector is optional.
D) A component must have a template, a selector, and a styleUrls property.

A
The basic configuration for an Angular component includes at least a template or templateUrl property. Both template properties are set to optional because you have to define either template or templateUrl.

What's the difference between an Angular component and a module?

A) Modules consist of one or more components. They do not control any HTML. Your modules declare which components can be used by components belonging to other modules, which classes will be injected by the dependency injector and which component gets bootstrapped. Modules allow you to manage your components to bring modularity to your app.
B) Components control views (html). They also communicate with other components and services to bring functionality to your app.
C) Components and modules are the same in Angular, and the terms can be used interchangeably.
D) Components and modules are both types of services in Angular that provide functionality to different parts of an app.

B
Components control views and handle UI interactions, while modules group components and provide modularity and organization to your app.

How would you run unit tests?

A) The Angular CLI downloads and installs everything you need to test an Angular application with the Jasmine test framework. The project you create with the CLI is immediately ready to test. Just run this one CLI command: ng test
B) Running unit tests in Angular requires installing third-party libraries manually. To run tests, use the npm test command.
C) Angular applications do not support unit testing.
D) To run unit tests in Angular, you need to manually write and configure the test environment.

A
Angular CLI provides a convenient way to run unit tests with the Jasmine test framework. The "ng test" command sets up and executes tests for your application.

What is a service, and when will you use it?

A) Angular services are singleton objects that share data and logic among application components, ensuring data persistence and a clear separation of concerns.
B) Angular services are components that handle the UI logic and user interactions in an Angular application.
C) Angular services are external JavaScript libraries that enhance the performance of Angular applications.
D) Angular services are used to style and design the user interface of an Angular application.

A
Angular services are singleton objects which get instantiated only once during the lifetime of an application. They contain methods that maintain data throughout the life of an application, i.e. data does not get refreshed and is available all the time. The main objective of a service is to organize and share business logic, models, or data and functions with different components of an Angular application. The separation of concerns is the main reason why Angular services came into existence. An Angular service is a stateless object and provides some very useful functions.

What is interpolation?

A) Interpolation is a technique used to transform data in Angular applications. It's similar to pipes but more powerful.
B) Interpolation is a special syntax that Angular converts into property binding. It's a convenient alternative to property binding. It is represented by double curly braces({{}}).
C) Interpolation is a form of routing in Angular that directs users to different views based on their interactions.
D) Interpolation is a way to include external libraries and code snippets in an Angular application.

B
Interpolation is a way to embed dynamic values from your component into the template. It's denoted by double curly braces and is commonly used for displaying dynamic content. The text between the braces is often the name of a component property. Angular replaces that name with the string value of the corresponding component property.

What is a bootstrapping module?

A) Every application has at least one Angular module, the root module that you bootstrap to launch the application is called the bootstrapping module. It is commonly known as AppModule.
B) A bootstrapping module is a module that is used to initialize the application and handle routing logic. It is typically defined using the @BootstrappingModule decorator.
C) A bootstrapping module is a type of service that manages the data bootstrapping process in Angular applications.
D) A bootstrapping module is an Angular component responsible for rendering the initial user interface of the application.

A
The bootstrapping module is the entry point of an Angular application. It defines the root component and sets up the application's dependencies. The default structure of AppModule generated by Angular CLI includes declarations, imports, providers, and bootstrap settings. AppModule serves as the entry point for your application and defines which components are part of the initial rendering.

What is the equivalent of ngShow and ngHide in Angular?

A) Just bind to the hidden property.
B) Use the ngIf directive with the condition inverted to achieve ngHide functionality. Use the ngIf directive with the condition directly to achieve ngShow functionality.
C) Use the [hidden] attribute with the condition inverted to achieve ngHide functionality. Use the [hidden] attribute with the condition directly to achieve ngShow functionality.
D) Use the [show] attribute with the condition inverted to achieve ngHide functionality. Use the [show] attribute with the condition directly to achieve ngShow functionality.

B
In Angular, the equivalent of ngShow and ngHide in Angular is achieved using the *ngIf directive. To hide an element, you can invert the condition using the exclamation mark (!) before the expression.

What are observables?

A) Observables are declarative, providing support for passing messages between publishers and subscribers in your application.
B) Observables are components used to manage the UI layout in Angular applications.
C) Observables are HTML tags used to display data in Angular applications.
D) Observables are utility functions for handling network requests in Angular applications.

A
Observables are used for handling asynchronous operations, allowing you to subscribe to changes and events over time. They are mainly used for event handling, asynchronous programming, and handling multiple values. Observables allow you to define a function for publishing values, but it is not executed until a consumer subscribes to it. The subscribed consumer then receives notifications until the function completes or until they unsubscribe.

What is a component? Why would you use it?

A) Components are the most basic building block of a UI in an Angular application. An Angular application is a tree of Angular components. Angular components are a subset of directives. Unlike directives, components always have a template and only one component can be instantiated per an element in a template.
B) Components are JavaScript libraries used to enhance the functionality of HTML elements.
C) Components are used to style and design the user interface in Angular applications.
D) Components are used to manage network requests and responses in Angular applications.

A
Components are the core building blocks of Angular applications, responsible for defining the UI, handling user interactions, and encapsulating logic.

What is an observer?

A) Observer is an interface for a consumer of push-based notifications delivered by an Observable. It has the below structure,

interface Observer < T > {
    closed ? : boolean;next: (value: T) => void;error: (err: any) => void;complete: () => void;
}

B) Observer is a type of web component used to display data in Angular applications.
C) Observer is a service used to manage the business logic in Angular applications.
D) Observer is a JavaScript library used to manipulate the DOM in Angular applications

A
In Angular, an observer is an object that subscribes to an observable and receives data from it. The observer has three methods: next(), error(), and complete(). The next() method is called when the observable emits a new value, the error() method is called when the observable emits an error, and the complete() method is called when the observable completes. Here is an example of an observer:
const observer = {
  next(value) {
    console.log('Observer got a next value: ' + value);
  },
  error(err) {
    console.error('Observer got an error: ' + err);
  },
  complete() {
    console.log('Observer got a complete notification');
  }
};

You have an HTML response I want to display. How do I do that?

A) The correct syntax is the following:
<div [innerHTML]=theHtmlString></div>
B) You can use the <ng-html> tag to display HTML responses in Angular applications.
C) You can use the <html-display> tag to render HTML responses in Angular applications.
D) You can directly bind the HTML response using {{theHtmlString}} in the template.

A
To display an HTML response in Angular, you can use the [innerHTML] binding to bind the HTML string to a div element.

What is the difference between Structural and Attribute directives in Angular?

A) Structural directives are used to alter the DOM layout by removing and adding DOM elements. It is far better to change the structure of the view. Examples of Structural directives are NgFor and NgIf.
B) Attribute directives are used to define the styling of DOM elements in Angular applications.
C) Structural directives are used to define the styling of DOM elements in Angular applications.
D) Attribute directives are used to alter the DOM layout by removing and adding DOM elements in Angular applications.

A
Structural directives like NgFor and NgIf manipulate the DOM structure by adding or removing elements based on conditions, while attribute directives modify the appearance or behaviour of elements.

How can I select an element in a component template?

A) You can get a handle to the DOM element via ElementRef by injecting it into your component's constructor:
constructor(myElement: ElementRef) { ... }
B) You can use the querySelector method provided by the Angular core library to select elements in a component template.
C) You can use the @ViewChild decorator to select elements in a component template.
D) You can use the getElementById method to select elements in a component template.

A
You can use the ElementRef to get a reference to the underlying DOM element and manipulate it directly.

What is the difference between *ngIf vs [hidden]?

A) ngIf effectively removes its content from the DOM while [hidden] modifies the display property and only instructs the browser to not show the content but the DOM still contains it.
B) ngIf and [hidden] both completely remove the content from the DOM.
C) ngIf and [hidden] both modify the display property of the content in the DOM.
D) ngIf and [hidden] have the same behaviour and can be used interchangeably.

@Component is used to create components with their own views, while @Directive adds behavior to existing elements/components.

How would you protect a component being activated through the router?

A) The Angular router ships with a feature called guards. These provide us with ways to control the flow of our application.
B) To protect a component, you can use the @Protect directive provided by Angular.
Create a service named canActivate that checks the user's access level and returns true or false. Use the @Protect directive in the component's template to restrict access.
C) You cannot protect a component from being activated through the router.
Angular automatically protects all components from unauthorized access.
D) To protect a component, you can use the ng-protect attribute in the component's selector. Create a service named canActivate that checks the user's access level and returns true or false. Use the ng-protect attribute in the component's template to restrict access.

A
The Angular router provides guards to control the activation of routes and prevent unauthorized access. We can stop a user from visiting certain routes, stop a user from leaving routes, and more.

The overall process for protecting Angular routes:
1. Create a guard service: ng g guard auth
2. Create canActivate() or canActivateChild() methods
3. Use the guard when defining routes

  const routes: Routes = [
       {
         path: 'account',
         canActivate: [AuthGuard]
       }
     ];

Some other available guards:
CanActivate: Check if a user has access
CanActivateChild: Check if a user has access to any of the child routes
CanDeactivate: Can a user leave a page? For example, they haven't finished editing a post
Resolve: Grab data before the route is instantiated
CanLoad: Check to see if we can load the route's assets
