Dynamic Components
In this lesson, you'll learn how to load components dynamically in Angular to create flexible applications.
What are Dynamic Components?
Dynamic components are loaded into the view at runtime instead of being declared directly in a template.
Why Use Dynamic Components?
- Flexible UI rendering
- Conditionally display components
- Build dynamic dashboards or modals
Creating a Placeholder
Use <ng-container> as a placeholder to load dynamic components:
<ng-container #dynamicContainer></ng-container>Using ViewChild
Access the container using @ViewChild in your component class:
@ViewChild('dynamicContainer', { read: ViewContainerRef }) container;Loading Components Dynamically
Use the component factory resolver to create and insert components:
const componentRef = this.container.createComponent(MyDynamicComponent);Passing Data to Dynamic Components
Pass data to your dynamically created component using inputs:
componentRef.instance.data = 'Hello Dynamic';Removing Dynamic Components
You can easily remove dynamic components from the DOM:
this.container.clear();Summary
You now know how to dynamically create, manage, and remove components in Angular. Awesome work!
