What is the usage of the async pipe in RxJS?

The async pipe in RxJS is used to subscribe to Observables directly in your templates, automatically managing subscriptions.

Can you give me an example of how to use it in an Angular component?

Sure! In your component, you can have an Observable, and in your template, you can use the async pipe like this: {{ myObservable$ | async }}.

What happens if the Observable emits new values?

The async pipe will automatically update the view with the latest emitted value whenever the Observable emits a new value.

Are there any performance considerations I should be aware of?

Yes, using the async pipe helps prevent memory leaks by automatically unsubscribing when the component is destroyed.
