These enhancements include better template type checking, improved auto-completion, and enhanced diagnostic messages, resulting in a smoother development experience for Angular developers.

Angular Material, the official UI component library for Angular, receives updates and improvements in Angular 18. This includes new components, updates to existing components, performance optimizations, and accessibility enhancements, ensuring Angular Material remains a top choice for building beautiful and accessible user interfaces in Angular applications.
