Angular Services vs Store: Which to Use?

What are the main differences between Angular services and a store for state management?

Angular services are singleton objects used for sharing data and logic across components, while a store (like NgRx) manages state in a more structured way, allowing for reactive programming.

When should I use a service instead of a store?

Use services for simple data sharing and logic, but opt for a store when your application has complex state management needs or requires time-travel debugging.

Can you give an example of when a store is beneficial?

Sure! A store is beneficial in applications with multiple components needing to access and update shared state, like a shopping cart in an e-commerce app.

Are there any performance considerations between the two?

Yes, services can be more lightweight and faster for simple tasks, while stores may introduce overhead but provide better performance for complex state changes due to their optimized change detection.
