How should we upgrade from AngularJS 1.6.4 to the latest Angular version? : <p>I'm working on a quite large enterprise software application (web-based). We're using Angular 1.6.4 since ... forever. Due to different reasons, we want to / have to upgrade from this old version to a new Angular version. I'm thinking of Angular 8 (?).</p>

<p>First off, I noticed that there is Angular-CLI. Is this the new way to use Angular? I've also found an official <a href="https://update.angular.io/#2.0:8.0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Angular Update guide</a>. But this only ranges from version 2.0 (and we're using 1.6.4).</p>

<p>Due to the size of our application, it will probably take weeks to months to upgrade everything. What is the best way to release this? I disklike on "big" update which moves everything from 1.6.4 to >8.0. </p>

<p>I'm a little bit lost, to be honest. It would be awesome if someone could push me in the right direction. :)</p>

<p>Have a good day!</p>
