Can this skill help with large-scale legacy apps?

Yes, it specializes in the incremental hybrid approach, allowing you to migrate large applications feature-by-feature without a full stop in development.

How does it handle service migration?

It provides strategies for migrating AngularJS factories to Angular services, including how to downgrade Angular services so they remain accessible to legacy AngularJS code.

Does it support the ngUpgrade module?

Absolutely. It provides specific templates and bootstrap scripts for setting up UpgradeModule to run AngularJS and Angular side-by-side.

Can I convert AngularJS directives to Angular components?

Yes, the skill includes detailed implementation patterns for mapping directive scopes, templates, and link functions to modern Angular component syntax.
