How does Angular handle multiple environments (e.g., development, production)?
- Angular uses the fileReplacements option in angular.json.
- You create environment files like environment.ts and environment.prod.ts.
- During build, Angular replaces the environment file based on the target configuration.
Example in angular.json:
"configurations": {
"production": {
"fileReplacements": [
{
"replace": "src/environments/environment.ts",
"with": "src/environments/environment.prod.ts"
}
}
}
- Allows different API endpoints, debug flags, or configurations per environment.
