Component class

Declare reusable UI building blocks for an application.

Each Angular component requires a single @Component annotation. The @Component annotation specifies when a component is instantiated.

When a component is instantiated, Angular

  • creates a shadow DOM for the component,
  • loads the selected template into the shadow DOM and
  • creates all the injectable objects configured with providers and viewProviders.

All template expressions and statements are then evaluated against the component instance.

Lifecycle hooks

When the component class implements some lifecycle-hooks the callbacks are called by the change detection at defined points in time during the life of the component.
