Angular’s framework approach is to keep most of the magic under the hood, providing tooling and best practices on top. Angular encourages you to use components, splitting your UI into separated and reusable pieces.

To work with individual components from different libraries, you can also use Bit. It provides isolation and control for components within a project, and enables you to share and sync them between different project. Individual components shared with Bit can also be installed used the NPM / Yarn client.

Individual components

Individual Angular components can be found in the popular awesome-angular and awesome-angular-components projects. When working with individual components, you can also keep them organized in a common Bit Scope, to provide better discoverability and simpler maintenance. Then, they can be installed and updated across your different projects.
