Template vs Reactive

This project was generated with Angular CLI version 7.3.1.

I set up this project to test (and compare) template driven forms with reactive forms approach. In app.component.html there are two lines:

<app-hobby-form [hobby2]="loadHobby()" (hobbyAdded)="addHobby($event)">

<app-hobby-form-reactive [hobby]="loadHobby()" (hobbyAdded)="addHobby($event)">

comment in <app-hobby-form> to see the template driven approach. comment out <app-hobby-form> and comment in <app-hobby-form-reactive> to see the reactive forms approch. Outcome is the same, but source code differs.

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build.

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor.
