Breaking Changes

core

• - Angular no longer supports Node.js v18.
  • Node.js versions 22.0 to 22.10 are also no longer supported.

Before upgrading to Angular v20, ensure the Node.js version is at least 20.11.1. For the full list of supported versions, visit: https://angular.dev/reference/versions - Uncaught errors in listeners which were previously only reported to ErrorHandler are now also reported to Angular's internal error handling machinery. For tests, this means that the error will be rethrown by default rather than only logging the error. Developers should fix these errors, catch them in the test if the test is intentionally covering an error case, or use rethrowApplicationErrors: false in configureTestingModule as a last resort.

router

• The guards arrays on Route no longer include any in the type union. The union includes functions for the functional guards as well as a type matching Injector.get: ProviderToken<T>|string. Note that string is still deprecated on both the route guards and Injector.get. ## Deprecations ### core
• ngIf/ngFor/ngSwitch are deprecated. Use the control flow blocks instead (@for/@if/@switch).
