📋 Decision Context

Question:

Can AOT compilation fully eliminate @angular/compiler at runtime?

Task: S267 AOT browser integration testing

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

No. AOT strategy must be HYBRID — pre-compile user templates but still load @angular/compiler for library code. Angular packages (HttpClient, Router, Forms) ship as partially-compiled and need JIT fallback.

Options Considered:

• No alternatives documented

💭 Reasoning

Angular library packages use ɵɵngDeclareFactory which requires the compiler facade. Until we integrate the Angular Linker (which pre-processes library code), the compiler cannot be eliminated. compilerEliminated must always be false in hybrid mode.
