Angular, the Event Loop & You

A presentation at Angular Australia in in Melbourne VIC, Australia by Erin Zimmer

Angular change detection might seem like magic, but, under the hood, it’s using a library called ZoneJS. ZoneJS allows you to hijack the standard WebAPI calls and manipulate them towards your own end.

We’re going to have a look at how Angular and ZoneJS interfere with the normal running of the event loop, why that’s a good thing, and how to deal with it in your code.
