Angular is reimagining data entry forms with signals! Angular's new signal-based forms bring a modern, reactive approach to handling user input. In this talk, we'll explore how signals transform form state and validation into a seamless developer experience. You'll see practical examples, discover how this new approach compares to template-driven and reactive forms, and walk away ready to harness signal-based forms in your own applications.

You will learn:

  • The difference between Angular's new signal-based forms and existing form APIs.
  • How to use signals for input binding, validation, and error handling.
  • Discover how signal-based forms reduce complexity and improve change detection.
