Angular Style Guide

This formatter follows the official Angular Style Guide recommendations for code organization, naming conventions, and formatting. It helps maintain consistency across your Angular applications.

TypeScript Guidelines:
  • Use classes for components, services, directives, pipes
  • Use @Input() and @Output() decorators
  • Implement lifecycle interfaces (OnInit, OnDestroy)
Template Guidelines:
  • Use kebab-case for element selectors
  • Use camelCase for property bindings
  • Use star syntax for structural directives
Angular Best Practices
  • ✓ One class per file
  • ✓ Use consistent import order
  • ✓ Name files as feature.type.ts
  • ✓ Use OnInit for initialization
  • ✓ Unsubscribe from observables
Angular CLI Integration

This formatter follows the same conventions as Angular CLI generated code. Use these commands to create properly formatted Angular artifacts:

ng generate component user-profile
ng generate service api/user
ng generate directive highlight
ng generate pipe truncate
ng generate module shared

For existing projects, you can use these tools alongside this formatter:

  • Prettier: Opinionated code formatter
  • ESLint: Linting with Angular plugin
  • Stylelint: CSS/SCSS linting

TypeScript Formatting

Formats Angular components, services, directives, and pipes with proper decorator spacing, import organization, and class structure.

Template Formatting

Formats Angular templates with proper indentation for structural directives, property bindings, and event handlers.

Style Formatting

Formats CSS and SCSS with proper nesting, selector organization, and property ordering for component styles.

Angular Style Guide Recommendations

File Structure

  • One class per file

    Each file should contain only one component, service, directive, or pipe.

  • Consistent naming

    Use feature.type.ts naming convention (e.g., user-profile.component.ts).

  • Group by feature

    Organize files by feature modules rather than by file type.

Code Organization

  • Import order

    Angular imports, then third-party, then application imports.

  • Property order

    Inputs, outputs, public properties, private properties.

  • Method order

    Lifecycle hooks, public methods, private methods.

Angular CLI Integration

This formatter follows the same conventions as Angular CLI generated code. Use these commands to create properly formatted Angular artifacts:

ng generate component user-profile --flat falseng generate service api/user --skip-tests falseng generate directive highlight --skip-tests falseng generate pipe truncate --skip-tests falseng generate module shared --flat true

Pro Tip

Use --skip-tests false to generate test files along with components

Frequently Asked Questions

While Prettier is a general code formatter, this tool is specifically designed for Angular with awareness of Angular-specific syntax like decorators, template syntax, and structural directives. It follows the Angular Style Guide more closely and handles Angular-specific patterns better.

Currently, this tool formats one file at a time. For bulk formatting, consider using Angular CLI with Prettier or the Angular language service in your IDE. This tool is perfect for quick formatting of individual files or checking code style.

Yes, the formatter supports modern Angular features including standalone components, new control flow syntax (@if, @for, @switch), signals, and other Angular 17+ features. It stays updated with the latest Angular releases.

Absolutely! You can copy any Angular file from your project into this tool, format it, and copy it back. This is especially useful for bringing legacy code up to current style standards or preparing code for code reviews.

You can use this tool as part of your code review process, for quick formatting of individual files, or to check if code follows Angular Style Guide. For IDE integration, consider setting up ESLint with @angular-eslint and Prettier with the same rules.

All code formatting is performed client-side in your browser. Your Angular code never leaves your device. No information is stored or transmitted to any server.
