How can I implement debouncing for inputs in reactive forms?

You can implement debouncing by using RxJS operators like debounceTime in your reactive form controls.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import { FormBuilder, FormGroup } from '@angular/forms';
import { debounceTime } from 'rxjs/operators';

this.form = this.fb.group({
  search: ['']
});

this.form.get('search').valueChanges.pipe(
  debounceTime(300)
).subscribe(value => {
  console.log(value);
});

What is the purpose of debounceTime?

The debounceTime operator delays the emission of values from the observable until a specified time has passed without any new values.

Are there any performance benefits to using debouncing?

Yes, debouncing can improve performance by reducing the number of events triggered, especially in scenarios like API calls.
