Angular Denver ’19: Enhance! Customizing the Angular CLI
Your Angular projects need custom tooling, but you’re stuck with default CLI behaviour. This focused session reveals how to extend and customise the Angular CLI to match your exact development workflow requirements.
AIU.ac Verdict: Perfect for Angular developers who’ve hit CLI limitations and need custom solutions. However, the 20-minute format means you’ll get techniques rather than comprehensive implementation guidance.
What This Course Covers
You’ll explore practical methods for extending the Angular CLI beyond its default capabilities, including creating custom schematics, modifying build processes, and integrating third-party tools into your CLI workflow. The course demonstrates real-world scenarios where CLI customisation solves common development bottlenecks.
Specific focus areas include schematic development patterns, CLI configuration modifications, and workflow automation techniques. You’ll see how to build reusable CLI enhancements that can be shared across teams and projects, turning repetitive development tasks into single-command operations.
