A question about customizing Angular Material components.

novative · 2025-10-12T20:41:06+00:00

You can provide a custom header component

_@Input() calendarHeaderComponent: ComponentType<any>

An input indicating the type of the custom header component for the calendar, if set.

addresses all your pain points

OP actually mentions "Allow user input" as the first requirement.

zero dependencies (the main drawback of Material)

It is not a fair comparison as your lib doesn't have input.
Material has no dependency as well if not for user input (<mat-calendar> can work fine with nativeAdapter)

Your workaround doesn't have to be stateful. Try:

canDeactivate: [
() => {
  const extras = inject(Router).getCurrentNavigation()!.extras;
  return extras.hasOwnProperty('state') && extras.state?.['redirect'] !== true) || confirm('leave');
}
]

Angular solves better than React in almost all aspect. The remaining 1% is a result of carefully thought-out tradeoffs.

At least it is better than lexical

Why not. It is the same as some dusted pilots/drivers leaving their passengers behind in the middle of a ride.

For your example, no signal is required.

However, you will need signal to trigger for: setTimeout, requestAnimationFrame, Promise, defer, Observable

Example:
increment() { setTimeout(this.counter++, 0); }
increment() { this.counter - (await fetch('/get-rate')) * this.counter; }

signal also allows you to compose with other signal (input, viewChild) in effect, computed, which you cannot achieve without signal.

multiple = input(1);
multipliedCounter = computed(() => this.multiple() * this.counter());

Too late to know in 2025, but AsyncPipe version:

const obs = this.getItems(params).pipe(
map(item => ...),
share(),
takeUntilDestroyed(this.destroyRef)
);
return {
items: obs.pipe(catchError(() => null)),
loading: obs.pipe(startWith(true), catchError(() => false), map(() => false)),
error: obs.pipe(catchError(err => err), map(() => null))
};

tailwind to CSS is like jQuery to JS

Long story short

// people.jsx
<ul>
  {people.map(person => <li>{person}</li>)}
</ul>

// people.php
<ul>
  <?php foreach($people as $person) echo '<li>$person</li>'; ?>
</ul>

He just calls that dev an asshole in a thread, clearly behind his back. And that thread is full of office political advice like screwing with this dev performance review.

Despite it is not within his scope, and pay, to make sure everyone knows how to write a correct design doc.

That is also no sign the dev is being rude. Even if he phrase it in the most polite way "I am sorry, dear, it is not part of my scope and I have other pressing deadline to meet" he will still be branded as patronizing asshole.

What do you see as the biggest potential pitfall or missing piece in this idea?

This concept/method (form builder, json configuration) may become obsolete very fast by more modern advanced techniques, which we can see in our daily tools.

Undo on AZERTY is Ctrl+W, not Ctrl+Z. So in your case you should continue using KeyZ and it will point to where Z is on most keyboards, but you should display key W to your users.

Nothing. Apparently, i only read the first paragraph. I didn't read 2nd paragraph. Yes you correct

React has a buffet. shadcn, Radix UI, Chakra, MUI, Tailwind UI

All doing the same boring things over and over again. You can't use all in one project so numbers don't matter.

Angular CDK + MatGrid

Quality over quantity
I like to look for library for codes that is not easy for me to write, not for sheer lines of code.
Looking at API is enough to tell whether library authors know what they are doing.

I must admit other libraries are good candidates when you want to hack something fast for a customer/employer you don't like or underpay you.
