15 Free & Open-Source Angular Components and Libraries

Alexandra Murtaza -

Angular is a very popular Javascript web application framework maintained by Google. It is open-source and it is mostly used in developing single-page applications. What is nice about this free framework is the fact that designers and web developers can work in parallel as HTML is used for templating. While Web designers can create user interfaces, the developers tie user interface components with data models by using declarative binding syntax.

But let’s see more about Angular components:

What are the components in Angular?

The Angular Components are a very important part of an Angular web application:

  • Angular Components define views, which are sets of screen elements that Angular can choose among and modify according to your program logic and data.
  • Each component defines a class that contains application data and logic and is associated with an HTML template that defines a view to be displayed in a target environment.
  • They are a piece of code that may or may not be dependent on another piece of code.
  • They are visible to the end-user and can be reused many times in an application.
  • A component consists of Class, Template, and Metadata.

Every Angular application has at least one component, the root component that connects a component hierarchy with the page document object model (DOM).

What is an Angular component library?

An Angular component library is a package that comes with ready-to-use components for Angular websites and applications and aim to speed up the development process while taking care of the design part. Another benefit of the Angular component library is the fact that it gives consistency to your web project.

Now, we’ve gathered some useful free and open-source Angular components and components libraries and we are presenting it in a list for you to help your research process when developing web apps based on Angular. You can also find awesome components from free angular templates here.
