Too Long; Didn't Read
Angular 8 is much faster and lighter than its previous versions, delivers new APIs, and aligns better with modern web standards and ecosystem. It is a major release that will bring changes to the entire platform, including the material, command line interface (CLI), and framework. The new version will feature separate JS bundles for modern (es2015) and traditional (es5) builds. It will take advantage of differential loading by default, and the loading time and speed of the app will be faster.
