Hi Max, It is great to see that you are so organised and you are extremely quick to keep your courses up to date which most of the instructors are quite slow to adapt to updations of courses. You are really the best. Your courses are worth buying since they are always up to date without even requesting updates from you. Thanks a lot.

Hi Max,
How are you learning everything fast? Please create a video on your daily routine. I just want to know how you have so much time to learn everything.

[CharithaSampathGunawardana]

As a habit i thumbs up before watching Max's Videos :)
Any way nice introduction. Short and sweet. Very useful.

Thank you Max for always updating your course on Angular and keeping us up to date. The best Angular teacher out there. I purchased your course back in Angular 2 and has helped me out alot.

I have been using Angular for years now and i love it. But these kind of things are hurting Angular. People want stable frameworks. If the real features will come in Angular 9 then why release a new Version just for the sake of Releasing a New version. Why do we even need "Angular 8 Experiment Edition". Its hard to consider upgrading If you are working on big projects. Btw Great video Max. Your content is amazing...

[Llinkn]

Thanks for the specs Max, i’ll stay in 7 and wait for the 9 to upgrade :)

just updated my project to angular 8 ... yes not many changes except some new deprecated things such as lazyloading now uses ()=>import(' ').then() and viewchild static.. that's all :Y

You are the best man! I really appreciate your courses and videos! i did buy couple of them on udemy, i'm originally back-end developer however these days i'm doing more and more front end and your videos have been huge help for me :) keep up great job! So big thx to you !

If Angular ditches modules, I May consider ditching Angular.. I thought Google promised not to make any more significant infrastructure changes after they destroyed Angular 1.x.. This is what I have been fearing. I love Angular more than just about any client side JS framework, but the instability and Google's desire for innovation at the cost of implementation is driving me mad! BTW, Max you are a great teacher and I do love your Udemy Angular course!

I have been using Angular 4 for years. Works fine. Is it really worth it to switch to the new Angular each time? Sounds like the adjustments are minor and would take longer to learn than to just use the old ways of doing it.

Hi Max, nice video! I really enjoyed it. Could you also make a video of how to upgrade Angular version and what to look out for when upgrading?

[hossamhassan]

I'm a student you're an excellent good teacher.
Appreciation

Hey Max! Great intro to A8. By the way, did you consider making a component creation series? Short videos on how to create web stuff, like parallax, slider, fade-in fade-out gallery, and so on... That would be cool...

[Mr_BetaMax]

Ah man, I've always wondered why Angular has to over complicate everything. I've been using React and Vue the last couple of months and I have to admit, going back to Angular makes me wonder why it's so convoluted.

[NickPavlica]

Another great release! I'm so happy that they aren't letting the framework get stail.

Hey Max, thanks for all the work you do with your courses and YouTube. I've learned a ton.

I did want to point out that you may need to set viewChild, {static: true} if you use ngOnChanges(). I built a dynamic reusable mat-table component that uses ngOnChanges(). I had to set viewchild to {static:true} in my code in order for it to work as it did before. As soon as I did, it worked flawlessly again.

Dynamic import in router configuration for lazy loading is new in angular 8
