Sonu Kapoor explains why always updating to the latest version is so important. TinyConf took place and the recordings are available on YouTube. Playwright introduces a clock feature in its latest release.
Importance of upgrading frameworks
Given Angular's current state, staying up to date is often a technical challenge. The main challenge, though, is persuading your manager and colleagues to change.
Sonu Kapoor wrote an article that presents arguments for upgrading and provides examples, such as potential security breaches, better developer experience, and performance improvements - Ivy, but also Signals, zoneless, hydration, etc.
Sonu's article serves as a good foundation for your next discussion. If that's still not enough, you can always bring up Google as an example.
According to Minko Gechev, Google runs around 4,500 Angular applications internally on the latest version.
TinyConf
TinyConf, a remote-only conference about Angular, took place. The conference lasted one day, and the talks were around 25 minutes long. In total, there were 23 talks, and given that amount, every topic was covered. The recording is available on YouTube.
Ng-Belgrade
Another conference, ng-Belgrade, started publishing its recordings on YouTube as wellโnot all at once but over the next weeks. Ng-Belgrade happened already in May.

Playwright 1.45
Playwright, a popular E2E testing framework, was released in 1.45. Like TypeScript, it does not follow schematic versioning.
Playwright comes with a new feature called clock that allows you to control time. Clock overrides the Date class and common timing functions like setInterval, requestIdleCallback, and more.
