Episode 23/11: TypeScript 5, Ng-Poland Videos, Cypress 12.8 & NgRx 15.4

#angular #webdev #javascript #programming

Last week, we had the final release of TypeScript 5 which comes with stable support for decorators. In addition, Ng-Poland released some of their conference recordings.

TypeScript 5

The beta version of TypeScript 5 was already covered in episode 23/4. Since then, there weren't any significant changes. So TypeScript 5 was released last week, and it came with stable support for decorators.

Announcing TypeScript 5.0 - TypeScript

In terms of the JavaScript standardisation process, decorators are already in stage 3 of 4. There is one exception, though. Parameter Decorators are in stage 2 and therefore are not available in TypeScript 5.

For more information, I'd recommend to read the official blog post or watch Matt Pocock's video.

There is already a PR for Angular itself. We'll see if it TypeScript 5 lands in 15.3 or in 16. For the time being, Angular will not use the stable version of the decorators but stays with the experimental one.

Ng-Poland Videos

Ng-Poland released four video recordings from their conference last cover. You can find them on YouTube. The talks cover topics like best practices on how to setup successful teams in an enterprise environment. Or bringing in ideas from the hexagonal architecture, which we usually find in the backend.
