# Angular Status: public Confidence: medium (0.725) (verified) Last verified: 2026-05-22 Generation: human_only ## TL;DR Angular is a TypeScript-based framework for building component-driven web applications. Current Angular documentation emphasizes components, standalone APIs, signals, and server-rendering hydration features. ## Core Explanation Components define a TypeScript class and associated template. Standalone components do not need to be declared in an NgModule. Signals provide reactive primitives such as `signal()`, `computed()`, and `effect()`. Angular v19 documentation describes incremental hydration as an advanced hydration mode for server-rendered Angular applications. ## Further Reading - [Angular components documentation](https://angular.dev/guide/components) - [Angular signals documentation](https://v19.angular.dev/guide/signals) - [Angular incremental hydration documentation](https://v19.angular.dev/guide/incremental-hydration)
