Angular 20 is a major milestone that redefines how we think about building modern web applications. In this episode of the Angular Master Podcast, I invited three outstanding experts: Manfred Steyer, Michael Egger-Zikes, and Rainer Hahnekamp. Together, we dive deep into: Signals – stabilization of APIs and the future of NgRx Signal Store Resource API – why it matters and what has changed Zone-less – is it time to go without Zone.js? Incremental Hydration – how it works and whether SSR should always be used Dynamic Components – new possibilities in Angular 20 Deprecations – *ngIf, *ngFor, *ngSwitch and Style Guide updates Testing – is Vitest the new standard? And we look ahead: Signal Forms API, Selectorless Components, new authoring formats, and what to expect in Angular 21.
