This commit updates the `ng generate application` to use the esbuild `application` builder. This also updates the schematics to support both `browser` and `application` builders.
BREAKING CHANGE: `rootModuleClassName`, `rootModuleFileName` and `main` options have been removed from the public `pwa` and `app-shell` schematics.
With this change we reduce the reliance on the TypeScript target compiler option to output a certain ECMA version. Instead we now use the browsers that are configured in the Browserslist configuration to determine which ECMA features and version are needed. This is done by passing the transpiled TypeScript to Babel preset-env.
**Note about useDefineForClassFields**: while setting this to `false` will output JavaScript which is not spec compliant, this is needed because TypeScript introduced class fields many years before it was ratified in TC39. The latest version of the spec have a different runtime behavior to TypeScript’s implementation but the same syntax. Therefore, we opt-out from using upcoming ECMA runtime behavior to better support the ECO system and libraries that depend on the non spec compliant output. One of biggest case is usages of the deprecated `@Effect` decorator by NGRX and potentially other existing code as well which otherwise would cause runtime failures. Dropping `useDefineForClassFields` will be considered in a future major releases. For more information see: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/45995.
BREAKING CHANGE: Internally the Angular CLI now always set the TypeScript `target` to `ES2022` and `useDefineForClassFields` to `false` unless the target is set to `ES2022` or later in the TypeScript configuration. To control ECMA version and features use the Browerslist configuration.
With this change we update the TypeScript compilation target to `ES2020` for both new and existing projects. This is because all browsers that Angular supports (https://angular.io/guide/browser-support) support `ES2020` features without the need for polyfills.
With this change we sync workspace and library schematic dependencies using Renovate. We do this to avoid having to keep these in sync by hand.
We could have used TypeScripts' `resolveJsonModule` to make the `latestVersion` object typesafe. But `ts_library` doesn't support JSON inputs.
This is not the first time, that this package caused a breaking change in a minor version, were it drops support for older `jasmine-core` versions.

With this change we update the TypeScript target of server compilation unit for new projects.
- E2E target has been update from `es2018` to `es2019`
- Browser target has been update from `es2015` to `es2017`
- Server target has been update from `es2016` to `es2019`
With this change we do several changes to the `angular.json` configuration for `build` , `server` and `app-shell` targets so that these are `production` by default.
- build, server and app-shell targets are configured to run production by default.
- We add a new configuration named `development` to run the mentioned builder targets in development. Ex: `ng build --configuration development`.
- When adding `universal` or `app-shell`, we generate the full set of configurations as per the `buiid` target. Previously, we only generated the `production` configuration.
- We added a helper script in `package.json` to run build in watch mode. `npm run watch` which is a shortcut for `ng build --watch --configuration development`
When new application is generated with --minimal flag it will be
created without any testing frameworks, linters, etc. But package.json
still contains broken scripts and dependencies.
So "test": "ng test", "lint": "ng lint" and "tslint": "~6.1.0",
"ts-node": "~8.3.0" should be removed. By analogy with "e2e": "ng e2e".
The ViewEngine message extraction generates a variety of legacy formats
for extracted message ids. These formats have a number of issues related
to whitespace handling and reliance upon information inside the original
HTML of a template. The new message format is more resilient to things
like whitespace changes, and can be generated directly from calls to
`$localize`, which allows messages in application code to have the same
id as identical messages in templates.
As a first step in migrating projects away from the legacy id format
for i18n messages, this commit updates newly generated projects to turn
off the legacy ids.
In the future the default will be flipped and this can be removed.
Eventually the legacy message id support will be removed altogether,
probably in sync with removal of ViewEngine.
This change adjusts the E2E schematic to generate a protractor configuration with the selenium promise manager disabled. It also adjusts the generated test files to use native promises and async/await to control test execution.
Following feedback from the community, which showed a high number of users found it hard to work with the `no-any` lint rule and also the `sideEffects` package.json file. With DevRel we decided to remove both features when generating a strict workspace and/or application.
Bugfix for the ng new --createApplication=false command.
Currently, it creates an e2e script in package.json. This change will only add the script when the application is created.
Closes#13412
