A serious message for #Angular engineers, from a teacher who has trained 2000+ students in Angular. 🙏
*******
I use Cursor extensively to accelerate #Angular development for both my clients and students. It’s a powerful tool, but in my experience, using it without a solid understanding of fundamentals is both immature and risky. 😐
Consider this scenario:
👉 You’ve built a signal-based form to edit a product
👉 You’re using httpResource in a service to fetch data
👉 There’s a button that triggers a PUT request to update the product
Now, an LLM generates code where, an Angular Signal effect is created inside the component constructor and inside that effect, the model signal used by the form is being set 💻
At first glance, everything looks fine. But here’s the problem ❓
You edit the product, click the button, and the updated value is never sent.
Instead, you always get the original API response.
What went wrong?
Despite having rules, skills, MCP, and multiple prompts in place, the LLM lost context. You keep prompting, hoping it fixes itself. Instead, it adds 50 more lines of code, introducing technical debt.
So yes, you saved 2 hours generating the form with AI. But you lost 2 hours debugging it because of weak understanding of Angular Signals.
The root issue:
The LLM incorrectly placed logic inside an effect instead of a computed.
As a result, every time change detection runs (e.g., on button click), the effect re-executes and resets the form with the original API value.
This overrides user edits.
So, if you want to master leveraging AI instead of becoming dependent on it, invest more time in strengthening your fundamentals. In this case Angular Signals.
