The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Modular Galaxy
summary
Explains that Angular libraries ship multiple formats so consumers get tree-shakable code and legacy fallbacks: packages include UMD, FESM (flat ES modules), and ES2015/ES5 builds; the build tool ng-packagr produces those outputs and webpack produces a CommonJS-like runtime in the final app. Shows that browsers load ES2015 with module/non-module script tags, that dynamic import creates separate lazy bundles, and that using ESModules vs NgModules yields measurable bundle-size reduction in practice.
