Is it possible to use new Angular components inside old AngularJS code?

Yes, the skill covers 'downgrading' Angular components and injectables using the downgradeModule and downgradeInjectable utilities so they can be utilized within your legacy AngularJS templates.

Can this skill help with service migration?

Yes, it provides specific patterns and code examples for converting AngularJS factories and services into modern Angular @Injectable classes using HttpClient and RxJS.

What is the best strategy for a large AngularJS migration?

For large applications, an incremental 'Hybrid' approach using ngUpgrade is recommended. This allows you to run both frameworks side-by-side and migrate feature-by-feature without a complete stop in development.

How does it handle hybrid application bootstrapping?

The skill includes standardized templates for configuring main.ts and app.module.ts to use UpgradeModule, allowing for a seamless manual bootstrap of the legacy AngularJS environment.
