Stop using ::ng-deep… what to do instead
Are you still relying on ::ng-deep to break Angular's style encapsulation? In this video, we’ll explore two alternatives that will change the way you style your components.
CSS Custom Properties – Learn how to replace ::ng-deep with flexible and dynamic styles using CSS variables. We’ll walk through a real-world example to show you how simple and effective this approach can be.
Disabling View Encapsulation – Discover when and how to turn off style encapsulation for those unique cases where custom properties fall short.
By the end of this tutorial, you’ll not only have cleaner, more maintainable styles, but you’ll also be equipped to future-proof your projects with modern Angular practices.
