There are many ways to become good at making UI for Angular apps. One way is to use UI libraries. There are many different libraries available, so finding one that suits your needs and preferences is important.
Once you have found a library, spend some time exploring it and learning how to use it effectively.

Experiment with different techniques and see what works best for you. With enough practice, you’ll be able to create beautiful and user-friendly interfaces for Angular apps with ease.
In this article we are going to learn how to become good at making UI for angular applications. so first of all we need to see the requirements in order to become a UI developer. we must have intermediate knowledge about some of most important and basic keys in web development and those are
- HTML
- CSS
- BOOTSTRAP
- JAVASCRIPT
Next, If you have great knowledge of these above technologies then you may
proceed learning to become UI developer for angular application.
I want to let you know that Angular is a component based framework and
that is also one of building blocks of an angular framework. so the
tricky part of being an Angular UI developer is that you must know the basics of angular
components and modules.
When it comes to making UI for angular apps, there are a few key things you need to keep in mind. First and foremost, you need to make sure that your HTML is up to par.
The AngularJS framework is all about DOM manipulation, so if your HTML isn’t up to snuff, you’re going to have a bad time. In addition to having solid HTML, you also need to have a good understanding of CSS.
Though AngularJS does come with some built-in styling options, if you really want to make your app shine, you’re going to need to dig into CSS and really learn how to use it effectively. Finally, don’t forget about JavaScript!
If you are in a way of learning angular , you must have great knowledge of creating
components and modules as they are most important in order to create the
application's architecture.
Here are some of Angular concepts you must have knowledge of, to become
good at making UI's in angular.
- How to use Components and modules for best angular application architecture
- Make changes to root index file
- Make use of CSS, SCSS or SASS and Js files.
- Import third party libraries
- Import bootstrap in Angular
- Angular material
- Lazy load
How to use Components and modules for best angular application architecture
Components and module both are building blocks of an angular application. A
component contains 4 files in it example:
- app.component.html
- app.component.css
- app.component.ts
- app.component.spec
Where app.component.html and app.component.css have important
role in order to create UI's in angular so these two files considered to have
in knowledge if want to become good at making UI's.
A Module is important file that hold all the configuration of its components,
third party npm modules etc. Modules are important because if you have
great module's structure according to the requirements of your
application.
You can have multiple components in a module and it can be considered as a
different section for different category.
Make changes to root index file
In order to become a professional UI developer , you must have knowledge to
customize things. It takes time but ,later on you reach the level where you
can customize your thing and have more advance version of your skills.
So in Angular , there you will find a number of cases where you need to import
external js files , CDN etc. So, to import those files you can use
index.html but we have place for them in angular.json.
Angular has it own configuration file where we can setup our external files
and CDN's etc.
In angular.json is a file where you can import assets path of files like css ,
scss, sass, xml and js etc
Make use of CSS, SCSS or SASS
Angular CLI asks you if you what style format you want to use into your
angular application like SCSS, CSS, LESS, STYLUS.
|
| Angular style format |
Use the command to set the format you want to use while create app.
ng new your-project-name --style=scss
If you want to use a default style format for all future projects use the
following command:
ng config --global defaults.styleExt=scssImport third party libraries
Angular is a complete solutions of today's generation web development and we
have so much to add into our angular application from third parties like any
package form node package manager or you may directly import libraries into
the app.
In order to be a good developer you must have ability to import those
libraries to your angular application as there are so many libraries in the
market and even getting built more.
So, if you are willing to improve your skills to become a professional UI
developer then you may need to work with third party libraries and must learn.
Import bootstrap in Angular
Bootstrap is very important to UI designers and developers as we can have so
many ready made classes for web page so that it can save time and efforts
while making HTML.
Bootstrap is very popular and easy to import it in angular application. there
are 3-4 ways to import bootstrap in the application. so you must have ability
to add bootstrap in angular application as it is kind of necessary thing for
any UI developer
It can easily be installed from node package manager with the command :
npm install bootstrap @import "~bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css"Angular Material
 |
| Angular Material |
Angular material is a UI component infrastructure that was mainly developed for mobile and web angular application. it is very popular and provides great feature.
Material is not only for UI things but also gives us API's like ready made dialogs, buttons, lists and much more.
In Angular , you can build modern designs with material, personally i use bootstrap and material together to make more than half things ready.
Lazy Load
Lazy load is interesting where you can load a component or module at real time and with the lazy load a module can have its children component with separate design structure like separate header or footer or whatever according to your need.
It is very important to learn as fetching data or component at real time is a great approach to avoid unnecessary memory leakage or time,
If you are in a way to become good angular designer or developer then you must have knowledge to implement lazy load.
Summary
In this article , we focused on some of most important angular concepts we must learn to become good making UI for angular apps.
Making UI's is first thing before doing the development in any web technology. so you must have awareness of such thing if you are going to learn angular. if you are a great learner then it is not going to be a big deal for you but you may find it interesting as Angular has its own structure to implement and that is way more easier than any other framework nowadays.
