How to use trackBy with ngFor in Angular

Using trackBy with ngFor in Angular dramatically improves list rendering performance by tracking items by unique identifier instead of object reference. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of Angular experience since 2014, I’ve optimized countless lists with trackBy in enterprise applications. Angular’s trackBy function prevents unnecessary DOM manipulation when list items change, reducing re-renders and improving application responsiveness. This approach is essential for lists that update frequently or contain complex templates.

How to bundle a React app with Webpack

Bundling React applications with Webpack provides full control over the build process, optimization strategies, and asset handling. With over 12 years of React experience since 2014 and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve configured Webpack for numerous production React applications. Webpack bundles JavaScript, CSS, images, and other assets into optimized files for deployment with extensive plugin ecosystem. This approach offers maximum flexibility for complex build requirements and custom optimization strategies.

How to use OnPush change detection in Angular

OnPush change detection in Angular dramatically improves performance by skipping change detection when input references don’t change. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of Angular experience since 2014, I’ve used OnPush to optimize performance in enterprise dashboards. OnPush strategy runs change detection only when input properties change reference, events fire, or Observables emit new values. This approach reduces unnecessary checks and makes applications faster, especially with large component trees.

How to manually trigger change detection in Angular

Manually triggering change detection in Angular is necessary when updates occur outside Angular’s zone or with OnPush strategy. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of Angular experience since 2014, I’ve manually controlled change detection in complex applications. ChangeDetectorRef provides methods to manually trigger, detach, and reattach change detection for fine-grained control. This approach optimizes performance and ensures UI updates when Angular doesn’t automatically detect changes.

How to profile Angular performance

Profiling Angular applications identifies performance bottlenecks in rendering, change detection, and component initialization. With over 12 years of Angular development experience since 2014 and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve optimized numerous slow Angular applications. Chrome DevTools and Angular DevTools provide profiling capabilities to measure component render times and change detection cycles. This approach helps you identify and fix performance issues before they impact users.

How to debounce API calls in Vue

Debouncing API calls in Vue prevents excessive requests during rapid user input like typing in search boxes. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of Vue.js experience since 2014, I’ve implemented debouncing in countless search interfaces. Debouncing delays function execution until after a specified time has passed since the last invocation. This approach reduces API calls, improves performance, and provides better user experience.

How to profile Node.js performance

Identifying performance bottlenecks in Node.js applications is essential for maintaining responsiveness under load, especially in production environments. With over 12 years of Node.js development experience since 2014 and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve optimized numerous backend systems serving millions of requests. Node.js includes a built-in CPU profiler that integrates with Chrome DevTools, allowing you to visualize function execution times and identify slow code paths. This approach provides production-grade profiling without external dependencies.

How to profile Node.js performance

Performance profiling identifies CPU bottlenecks, memory leaks, and inefficient code paths to optimize Node.js application throughput and responsiveness. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve profiled and optimized Node.js backends throughout my 11 years of backend development. The most comprehensive approach combines Chrome DevTools profiler for CPU analysis with Node.js performance hooks for metrics collection. This method reveals function execution times, identifies hot paths, and exposes event loop blocking operations.

How to optimize Angular build size

Optimizing Angular build size is crucial for improving load times and performance, especially for users on slower connections. As the creator of CoreUI with over 11 years of Angular development experience since 2014, I’ve optimized builds for countless enterprise applications. The most effective solution is to use production builds with lazy loading, tree-shaking, and proper bundle optimization. This approach can reduce build size by 50-80% compared to development builds.

How to preload modules in Angular

Module preloading in Angular optimizes application performance by loading feature modules in the background after initial application load. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive Angular experience since 2014, I’ve implemented preloading strategies in numerous enterprise applications to balance initial load speed with navigation performance. The most effective approach uses Angular’s built-in preloading strategies or custom preloading logic with RouterModule configuration. This pattern ensures fast initial loads while preparing subsequent modules for instant navigation.
