For local development, pnpm is the preferred package manager. You can set up a local environment with the following commands :
# Clone Angular repo
git clone https://github.com/angular/angular.git
# Navigate to project directory
cd angular
# Install dependencies
pnpm install
# Build and run local dev server
# NOTE: Initial build will take some time
pnpm adevIf you are having issues with the docs building, see the FAQs section.

This is most likely due to a bazel dependency / caching issue. To resolve this, run the following command:

The angular.dev website is a modern Angular application that utilizes Static Site Generation (SSG) to deliver pre-rendered, high-performance content to users.
The architecture is designed for efficiency and maintainability:
Content Sources: The documentation is sourced from two main places within the monorepo. The guides and tutorials are written in Markdown files, while the API reference pages are automatically generated by extracting documentation directly from the TypeScript source code of the Angular framework packages.
Build Process: During the build process, the Markdown files are converted into HTML. Simultaneously, the API documentation is extracted from the code comments. This content is then integrated into the Angular application.
