AMP 71: The PRO Way to Use Angular – Learn from Roberto Heckers

Angular Master Podcast

🎙️ Welcome back to the JavaScript Master Podcast! I’m your host, Dariusz Kalbarczyk – co-founder of NG Poland, JS Poland, AngularMaster.dev & WorkshopFest.dev.

In this episode, I’m joined by a very special guest from the Netherlands – Roberto Heckers: Freelance Senior Frontend Engineer, Angular fanatic, and the author of Effective Angular.

We dive deep into what it means to build Angular apps like a pro – from mastering Nx, RxJS, and NgRx, to using standalone APIs, Signals, and Angular directives for clean, scalable code. Roberto also shares his thoughts on state management, dynamic components, testing strategies with Cypress and Jest, and his go-to design patterns that just work.

But that’s not all.

We also explore how to build accessible, performant, and internationalized Angular applications, tackle common security concerns, and optimize the deployment process through smart automation.

Toward the end, Roberto opens up about the human side of being a dev – how he stays motivated, what music he codes to, and what career he might pursue if tech wasn’t on the table.

If you’re working with Angular – or thinking about it – this is one episode you don’t want to miss.
