Understanding this trend, Angular Team has put emphasis to simplify the PWA making process. Not only that, with Angular 5.0 it is possible to get the features of native mobile applications with the mobile web apps such as push notifications and offline experience. This is made possible as Angular can create code and configuration with Angular-CLI on its own.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Material Design Components<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another major update in Angular 5.0 is that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/material.angular.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material Design components<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are now made compatible with server-side rendering. However, this feature has not been released for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Built Optimizer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angular 5.0 comes with build optimizer tool. It makes the application lighter and faster by removing unnecessary runtime code as well as unnecessary additional parts. Ultimately the size of the JavaScript decreases, and application becomes much faster.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Angular Universal State Transfer API and DOM<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angular 5.0 comes with Angular Universal State Transfer API and DOM support for sharing code between server and client-side versions of an application.\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/universal.angular.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angular Universal<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> renders the application on the server side. This increases the perceived performance of the application.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Improved compiler and Typescript<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typescript was introduced in Angular 2.0 and along with the upgrades in Angular newer versions of typescript were also introduced. The Angular compiler for Angular 5.0 comes with typescript 2.3 that makes the rebuilt super-fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>CLI v1.5<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By default, all the projects on Angular 5 are now generated by CLI v1.5.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Router Hooks<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Developers can now track the router cycles from the start of running guards till the activation is completed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Number, date and currency pipes <\/b><b>update<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Earlier Angular was dependant on the browsers to get the number, date and currency format. This resulted in inconsistency for users. But now in Angular 5.0, international number, date and currency have been standardized.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to update to Angular 5?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angular team has set up an easy<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/angular-update-guide.firebaseapp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angular Update Guide<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that will navigate you through the update process and get insights you need before you update.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Future Updates<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>With two major releases within a year, Angular team has plans to release Angular 6 and 7\u00a0 in the\u00a0upcoming year. They have already shared a tentative schedule for the future updates.<\/p><br><\/br><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1722\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techuz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/After-sep-2017.png\" alt=\"Schedule for Angular 6 and 7\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(Tentative schedule for Angular 6 and 7)<\/p>\n<h2><b>Wrap up<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no doubt that Angular is the most popular JavaScript framework.
