Components in Angular

Components are the foundational building blocks for any Angular application. Each component has three parts:

  • TypeScript class
  • HTML template
  • CSS styles

In this activity, you'll learn how to update the template and styles of a component.


This is a great opportunity for you to get started with Angular.

  1. Update the component template

    Update the template property to read Hello Universe

          
    template: `
    Hello Universe
    `,

    When you changed the HTML template, the preview updated with your message. Let's go one step further: change the color of the text.

  2. Update the component styles

    Update the styles value and change the color property from blue to #a144eb.

          
    styles: `
    :host {
    color: #a144eb;
    }
    `,

    When you check the preview, you'll find that the text color will be changed.

In Angular, you can use all the browser supported CSS and HTML that's available. If you'd like, you can store your template and styles in separate files.
