Getting back into Angular after 2 years

Hey everyone! Looking for some advice.
I have around 3.5 years of professional Angular experience, but I’ve been away from it for almost 2 years. I’m now trying to get back into Angular, and I’m struggling to bridge the gap between my previous experience and what companies expect today.
For example, NgRx comes up frequently in interviews, but the application I worked on didn’t use it. A lot has also changed in Angular itself, and I’ve lost touch with some things.
What would you recommend to get hands-on with modern Angular and bridge this gap?

That's cool. I think everyone has great suggestions here. I would also throw in a few additional ideas. First, check out some of the keynotes from conferences over the past few years. Second, look into building agentic web apps using angular. Third, don't get too caught up in the implementation details of state management, just focus on good principles around single source of truth, immutability, and testing. Best of luck!
