Powerful architecture that scales

Enterprise environment comes with its own set of challenges which are not present in the smaller organizations which can get away with an ad-hoc approach to development!

Standardized, repeatable and maintainable architecture is the key to success in an environment with multiple teams developing lots of applications.

Trusted by the Angular community

eBook

This books delivers a complete toolkit for effortless Enterprise grade Angular Architecture

The implementation of automated architecture validation with ESLint is a transformative addition to the development workflow. It effectively resolves the challenge of upholding a clean and uniform architecture across the full span of the project’s life. Just configure it once, and you can rest easy!
Tomas's knack for clarifying concepts with extensive diagrams is outstanding. His method is not only instrumental in understanding the underlying principles but is also critical for any Angular developer looking to increase their accountability and ensure the successful delivery of their projects.

Automated Architecture Validation

Clean architecture is not only about the initial setup, but also about the ability to maintain it over time. Automated architecture validation is the key to ensure that your project stays maintainable and extendable over the whole project lifetime!

Without support of the automated tooling, we are basically left with the manual code reviews and the hope that everyone involved is paying 100% attention at all times which is just not realistic!

Eslint based architecture validation violations in IDE and terminal Example of architecture violations caught by Eslint

Tooling based architecture validation

  • Eslint based architecture validation with eslint-plugin-boundaries
  • Predefined set of proven architectural building blocks and rules to ensure that your project stays maintainable and extendable over time
  • In depth explanation of every architectural building block with lots of examples and approaches how to apply them to implement real world use cases
  • Explicitly defined relationships between architectural building blocks and list of common pitfalls to avoid
  • Powerful IDE integration to stay in the flow and catch the architectural violations as you type
  • Easy to integrate tooling to catch architectural violations in the CI/CD pipeline so no problematic code gets merged into the main branch

Essential guide for building maintainable Angular applications

eBook

Personally, I would suggest this should be part of the official documentation of Angular!

This book give you a clear overview on how to get started building maintainable mid to large-scale Angular applications with the tools that are provided out of the box with standard Angular CLI workspace
Having a good understanding on how the architecture of an Angular application should look like is a very important skill for every Angular developer who wants to deliver high quality applications.

Tips & best practices

Lots of actionable tips and best practices based on the extensive experience, for example...

info
The boundaries/strict rule set is the way to go for all new projects, but it's also possible to start with the less strict boundaries/recommended rule set which is more suitable for existing projects as it allows us to have parts of the project non-compliant with the defined types, making it possible to refactor the codebase progressively.
thumb_up
When grouping logic in sub folders, always use domain based grouping, e.g. core/auth/ or core/user/ instead of grouping by building block type like core/services/ or core/reducers/ !
warning
Both extreme approaches, loading files one by one (native module loading) and bundling all files into one huge bundle are suboptimal, and therefore the tooling helps us find balance with a smaller number of reasonably sized bundle files!
thumb_down
The issue with running the schematics from the terminal instead of the IDE is that in large projects, the paths can become very long and tedious or even downright hard to type correctly, which would predictably lead to the errors and frustration.

  1. Angular 18.1, Typescript 5.5, typos, ...

    The example repo was updated to latest Angular 18.1 which brings support for @let template syntax and TypesScript 5.5 which is especially important because of the new Inferred Type Predicates feature which will greatly improve DX when narrowing types in array (or RxJs) operators, learn more from the official release blog...

    Use semantic HTML in the example repo (nav, header, ...)

    Many small fixes in the ebook content including typos, inconsistencies and more!

  2. Angular 18, Material 3 & Zoneless

    The example repo was updated to latest Angular 18 and comes with the zoneless change detection enabled out of the box. Additionally, it switched to Material 3!

  3. Improved rules

    Improved and simplified rules, the feature is split into feature and feature-routes to prevent event more accidental imports while allow for seamless reuse of features through routing!

    The shared-feature is removed as it's now redundant.

    Allow pattern building blocks to consume each other.

    Added dependency graph analysis per architectural type with madge (additional npm scripts)

    Added link to example repo into the book content itself.

    Many small fixes and improvements...

  4. Updates and fixes

    Lots of little updates, fixes, typo corrections and improvements...

  5. Complete rework of the book from ground up
