Migrating an Angular project from version 11 to version 19 involves upgrading through each major version step-by-step, as skipping multiple versions at once is prone to errors and compatibility issues. Here’s a structured guide to help you:

1. Prerequisites

• Backup Your Project: Ensure you have a complete backup of your project.
• Node.js and npm: Update Node.js and npm to versions compatible with Angular 19. Check the Angular documentation for the latest requirements.
• Angular CLI Installed Globally: Upgrade your global Angular CLI to the latest version. npm install -g @angular/cli
• Dependencies Check: Remove deprecated or incompatible third-party libraries.

2. Upgrade Angular Version Incrementally

Use the Angular CLI ng update command to ensure a smooth transition.

Upgrade Angular 11 to 12

ng update @angular/core@12 @angular/cli@12

• Follow any prompts or migration steps provided.
• Fix any breaking changes noted in the Angular 12 update guide.

Upgrade Angular 12 to 13

ng update @angular/core@13 @angular/cli@13

• Resolve deprecated APIs and check the Angular 13 update guide.

Upgrade Angular 13 to 14

ng update @angular/core@14 @angular/cli@14

• Angular 14 introduces typed forms. Update your forms if necessary.
• Follow the Angular 14 update guide.

Upgrade Angular 14 to 15

ng update @angular/core@15 @angular/cli@15

• Check for breaking changes such as stricter type checking and the standalone component API.
• Refer to the Angular 15 update guide.

Upgrade Angular 15 to 16

ng update @angular/core@16 @angular/cli@16

• Angular 16 introduces signal-based reactivity and other performance enhancements. Update features if applicable.

• Check release notes for Angular 19 for final adjustments.

3. Test Your Application

• Run Unit Tests: Ensure all tests pass. ng test
• E2E Tests: Execute end-to-end tests to verify user flows. ng e2e
• Manual Testing: Test the application manually in various browsers and devices.

4. Update Dependencies

• Update third-party libraries to their latest versions compatible with Angular 19.
