I just asked @vscode.dev copilot to improve an @angular.dev component and the first thing it did was replace signal input APIs with decorators, new control flow syntax with directive-based control flow syntax. Stunned, I asked it why, here is the response. What do you think #angular developers?

Looking back and even before I looked at GitHub wrapped (unofficial), I had an incredible year, despite the ups and downs. Switched Jobs, writing a book, working on something else on the side that excites me, I guess I can say overall I am happy, and that's what's important.

When working with multiple object Types in #Typescript, relying on assertions is common when we want access to a property from one of the Types. An alternative approach is using the in operator, which allows Typescript to narrow down types by verifying the existence of a property within the object.
