Angular Built-in Pipes

Implementing custom pipes is quick and straightforward. However, we shouldn’t reinvent the wheel, if possible. There are many cases where the built-in pipes in Angular may help us. Therefore, instead of implementing everything ourselves, it’s a better idea to learn about the most commonly used pipes and utilize them when needed.

In this lesson, we’ll learn about four built-in pipes. These are some of the more useful ones, but we may check the complete list of pipes that Angular provides.

In the introductory lesson, we talked about issues we may potentially encounter when working with dates in an application. The key point here is that, most likely, we want to keep the date format consistent across the application. Trying to achieve this may lead to code duplications and potential bugs.
