Angular v22 is now available, promoting three major features to stable: Signal Forms (reactive, composable forms combining the best of reactive and template-driven approaches), Angular Aria (accessible UI primitives with 12 patterns), and the Asynchronous Reactivity APIs (resource and httpResource for declarative async data fetching). The release also introduces a new @Service decorator to replace the verbose @Injectable({providedIn:'root'}) pattern, injectAsync for lazy-loading services with code splitting, OnPush as the default change detection strategy for new apps, and numerous template improvements including arrow functions, spread syntax, multi-case @switch matching, exhaustive @switch checks, and inline HTML element comments. On the AI front, Angular ships updated MCP tools for dev server interaction, Angular Agent Skills for AI coding assistants, and experimental WebMCP support for browser-based agent interactions. Webpack support is deprecated in favor of TSGo-based application builder. A preview of @boundary error boundaries is teased for Q3 2026.
