While one could get engrossed by creating services, templates, and binding data while working with Angular, there is a silent journey that every component necessarily takes from birth to death. This journey is known as the component lifecycle, and it is the backbone of Angular’s ability to offer users interfaces that are dynamic and efficient. In order for a developer to take control of crucial points in this lifecycle, Angular provides lifecycle hooks as special methods that are invoked at defined moments in the lifetime of a component. You would require them to initialize data, observe changes, and release resources before the destruction of a component.
