How do I migrate from template-driven to reactive forms in Angular?

I'm trying to migrate my Angular forms from template-driven to reactive forms. Where do I start?

To start migrating, you'll need to import ReactiveFormsModule in your app module. Then, replace template-driven directives with reactive form controls.

What are the main differences between template-driven and reactive forms?

Template-driven forms are more declarative and rely on Angular's directives, while reactive forms are more programmatic and provide more control over form state and validation.

Can you show me an example of a simple reactive form?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

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

this.myForm = this.fb.group({
  name: [''],
  email: ['']
});

This creates a form with 'name' and 'email' fields.

How do I handle form validation in reactive forms?

You can add validators when creating the form controls. For example:

this.myForm = this.fb.group({
  name: ['', Validators.required],
  email: ['', [Validators.required, Validators.email]]
});
