Explain how component routing works in Angular.

The component routing works in Angular as whenever a user navigates to a page, Angular Router performs the following steps in order:

• it reads the browser URL the user wants to navigate to
• it applies a URL redirect (if one is defined)
• it figures out which router state corresponds to the URL
• it runs the guards that are defined in the router state
• it resolves the required data for the router state
• it activates the Angular components to display the page
• it manages navigation and repeats the steps above when a new page is requested.
