Study the solution

Standalone components (standalone: true) declare their own template dependencies via an imports array and don't need to be declared in an NgModule. They simplify the mental model, reduce boilerplate, and are now Angular's recommended default for new apps.

Read the code

A standalone component + bootstrap
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [CommonModule],                 // declares its OWN dependencies
  template: `
    <ul><li *ngFor="let t of todos">{{ t }}</li></ul>
  `,
})
export class AppComponent {
  todos = ['Learn standalone', 'Drop NgModules'];
}

// No AppModule needed:
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent);
