Issue number: N/A --------- <!-- Please do not submit updates to dependencies unless it fixes an issue. --> <!-- Please try to limit your pull request to one type (bugfix, feature, etc). Submit multiple pull requests if needed. --> ## What is the current behavior? <!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. --> **1. Bundle Size Reductions** All Ionic UI components and Ionicons are added to the final bundle of an Ionic Angular application. This is because all components and icons are lazily loaded as needed. This prevents the compiler from properly tree shaking applications. This does not cause all components and icons to be loaded on application start, but it does increase the size of the final app output that all users need to download. **Related Issues** https://github.com/ionic-team/ionicons/issues/910 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionicons/issues/536 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/27280 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/24352 **2. Standalone Component Support** Standalone Components are a stable API as of Angular 15. The Ionic starter apps on the CLI have NgModule and Standalone options, but all of the Ionic components are still lazily/dynamically loaded using `IonicModule`. Standalone components in Ionic also enable support for new Angular features such as bundling with ESBuild instead of Webpack. ESBuild does not work in Ionic Angular right now because components cannot be statically analyzed since they are dynamically imported. We added preliminary support for standalone components in Ionic v6.3.0. This enabled developers to use their own custom standalone components when routing with `ion-router-outlet`. However, we did not ship standalone components for Ionic's UI components. **Related Issues** https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/25404 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/27251 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/27387 **3. Faster Component Load Times** Since Ionic Angular components are lazily loaded, they also need to be hydrated. However, this hydration does not happen immediately which prevents components from being usable for multiple frames. **Related Issues** https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/24352 https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/issues/26474 ## What is the new behavior? <!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by this PR. --> - Ionic components and directives are accessible as Angular standalone components/directives ## Does this introduce a breaking change? - [ ] Yes - [x] No <!-- If this introduces a breaking change, please describe the impact and migration path for existing applications below. --> ## Other information <!-- Any other information that is important to this PR such as screenshots of how the component looks before and after the change. --> Associated documentation branch: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-docs/tree/feature-7.5 --------- Co-authored-by: Maria Hutt <thetaPC@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Sean Perkins <sean@ionic.io> Co-authored-by: Amanda Johnston <90629384+amandaejohnston@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Maria Hutt <maria@ionic.io> Co-authored-by: Sean Perkins <13732623+sean-perkins@users.noreply.github.com>
Ionic
Ionic is an open source app development toolkit for building modern, fast, top-quality cross-platform native and Progressive Web Apps from a single codebase with JavaScript and the Web.
