What are Angular Pipes, and how are they used?

Short answer: Pipes transform data in templates. Used with the pipe | operator. Angular provides built-in pipes like date, currency, uppercase, async, etc.

Example code

<p>{{ birthday | date:'longDate' }}</p>

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest admin can be built in Angular with modules/components, services for API calls, and reactive forms for product edit.

Say this in the interview

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
