feat(router): add controls for route cleanup #65991

Hydration transforms a pre-rendered HTML page (produced by server-side rendering) into a fully interactive Angular application on the client side. With incremental hydration (here the complete RFC), you can determine when specific parts of your application need to become interactive.

Luckily, as of Angular 21.0.1, there's now a really clean way to add them back.

Angular PDF libraries provide a powerful set of features that enable developers to create, display, and manipulate PDF documents, which include an Angular PDF viewer/editor, directly within an Angular application. Which helps us to create PDF files, being a common format for reports, invoices, forms, and downloadable content, their implementation has become an indispensable part of today's web development.

feat(forms): add `debounce()` rule for signal forms #64929

Custom validators are one of those things you'll definitely need when building real-world forms. But if you've been wondering how they work with Angular's new Signal Forms API, you're in the right place. Today we'll migrate a form with custom validation from Reactive Forms to Signal Forms, and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by how straightforward it is. The syntax changes are minimal, and the result is cleaner, more reactive code.

I've made a few tutorials on Signal Forms now, and I've seen the comments. Some of you said the old Reactive Forms way is just as good, or you just still like it better. And I get it. Maybe the benefit hasn't been obvious. So today, I'm going to show you a real-world form (the kind that gets messy fast) and we're going to rebuild it using Signal Forms. By the end of this post, hopefully you'll see the advantage, not just hear me say it.

Building dynamic forms in Angular has always felt a little like assembling IKEA furniture without the instructions. But soon, there will be a simpler, more reactive way. One that actually feels reactive. In this tutorial, we’ll take a dynamic form built with classic Reactive Forms and upgrade it to use the new Signal Forms API. It's still experimental, but what it can already do will make you wish it wasn’t.

Built with Express.js

Finally, we'll configure the MCP server to expose our tools and flows. We'll use genkitx-mcp and express to create a Server-Sent Events (SSE) endpoint.

The Express server is straightforward. Here are the two main endpoints:

I've started out as a PHP developer, using Zend Framework for a large part of my career. Quite a few years ago my projects started shifting to NodeJS, starting with ExpressJS like many others.

Step 2: Set Up Your Webhook Endpoint Here, we will build our webhook endpoint using Node.js and Express.js. This endpoint allows one app (Flutterwave) to communicate with your web app in real time. First, we need to set up our project and install the necessary dependencies:

In this tutorial, you'll create an Express application that makes a Mastercard card payment request using Rapyd APIs and listens to webhook events for dispute resolution. By the end of the tutorial, you'll learn how to do the following:

Express.js → Minimal backend used to keep the bot service alive and expose a simple health route.
