💬 Potential Interview Questions

What are the key differences between Angular and React in terms of architecture and usage?
Angular is a full-featured MVC framework with built-in tools like routing and form handling, while React is a library focused on the view layer, often requiring additional libraries for routing and state management.
How do you manage state in a large-scale Angular application?
Use services with RxJS for reactive state management or integrate NgRx for a Redux-like global state approach that ensures predictability and scalability.
What are the advantages of using Angular 17+ features in enterprise applications?
Angular 17+ offers improved performance with hydration, deferred loading, standalone components, and stronger type safety with strict typing features.
How do you handle performance optimization in Angular applications with large data sets?
Implement virtual scrolling, use trackBy in *ngFor, lazy-load modules, cache API responses, and minimize change detection cycles using OnPush strategy.
Explain your experience using enterprise-grade data grids like AG Grid in Angular.
Configured AG Grid with server-side row models, implemented custom cell renderers, enabled real-time updates via websockets, and integrated sorting/filtering with backend APIs.
How do you ensure secure authentication and authorization in Angular apps?
Use OAuth 2.0 with secure tokens, implement route guards, store tokens in memory or HttpOnly cookies, and follow OWASP guidelines for frontend security.
How do you structure and organize Angular applications for long-term maintainability?
Use feature-based folder structure, isolate modules, create shared and core modules, define clear service responsibilities, and follow Angular style guide conventions.
What is your approach to writing unit tests for Angular components and services?
Use Jasmine and Karma to test components, mock services with dependency injection, test observable streams with marble tests, and ensure high test coverage.
How do you handle real-time data updates in Angular apps?
Use WebSocket connections or libraries like socket.io-client, update RxJS streams in services, and subscribe in components using async pipes to auto-refresh views.
