Preview of Ivy

If you have been following Angular then you probably encountered the word “Ivy”. Ivy is a major change in Angular history, it an angular renderer which is radically different from anything as it uses incremental DOM. It changes how the framework internally works, without changing our Angular applications. The Ivy project is basically rewriting the Angular compiler and runtime code in order to reach

  • better build times ( incremental approach)
  • better build sizes more compatible with tree-shaking
  • new potential features like lazy loading of component instead of modules

Two main concepts of IVY

    1. Tree shakable: It means removing unused pieces of your code, the framework does not interpret the component. Instead, the component references instructions. If it doesn’t reference a particular instruction, which will never be used so we can omit the unused instruction from the bundle results in smaller bundles and faster load times.

tree shaking

    1. Low Memory Footprint: Incremental DOM doesn’t need any memory to rerender the view if it doesn’t change the DOM so it allocates the memory when the DOM nodes are added or removed. since most of render/template calls don’t change anything result in huge memory savings.
