NgRx Signal Store Trilogy, Part 1: Why, When, and How?

NgRx, the reigning champion of state management in Angular, has taken a significant leap forward by introducing the NgRx Signal Store. Joining the ranks of the Global and Component Stores, the Signal Store represents the third evolution of NgRx's state management prowess. This video starts with Signals and explores why they necessitate a more sophisticated state management approach. We then shift gears to live coding, demonstrating the practical application of the Signal Store by migrating from the NgRx Global Store. The true power of the Signal Store lies in its extensibility, which I'll unveil in the final segment. Witness the ease with which reusable features can be crafted, transforming your Angular development experience.
