What is Dependency Injection?
“DI is a design pattern that makes an object independent
of its dependencies by decoupling its usage from its creation.”
Improves testability, scalability and maintainability Reduces tight coupling
class UsersService { private usersResource = new HttpUsersResource(); private logger
= new ServerLogger(); } Without Dependency Injection
class UsersService { private usersResource = new HttpUsersResource(); private logger
= new ServerLogger(); } Tightly coupled Without Dependency Injection
class UsersService { constructor( private usersResource: UsersResource, private logger: Logger
) {} } With Dependency Injection
class UsersService { constructor( private usersResource: UsersResource, private logger: Logger
) {} } With Dependency Injection Loosely coupled

Summary
DI mechanism is one of the most powerful features of
the Angular Framework! DI gives the ability to write loosely coupled and reusable code that is easier to test, scale, and maintain.
