spawn/generate existing components dynamically in Angular 11

253 views Asked by At

I'm doing an web application that is supposed to work like the contacts app that we have in our phones:

  1. Register contact info (name, email, number)
  2. Click on save Button
  3. List is updated immediately (here is my problem)

So I have a list.component (a grey mat-card) and a contact.component, (an orange mat-card).

I want to spawn a new contact.component inside of the list.component, and destroy it when the user select the delete button. It looks like this now

The data is passing fine, but I don't know how to add a new existing component inside another.

You could save the contacts inside a public array and then iterate over it inside the list-component:

  <list-component>
<ng-container *ngFor="let contact of contactArray"> 
<contact-component></contact-component>
 </ng-container>
</list-component>

When the user adds another contact, you can push it to the contactArray and the additional contact-component will appear
