Angular's built-in Router module can be used to dynamically highlight the active menu item in an Angular application based on the current path. You can now apply a class to the active link as a result.


Here's how to accomplish it.

First, import the RouterModule

Ensure that your Angular module—typically app.module.ts—has the RouterModule set.

import { RouterModule } from '@angular/router';
@NgModule({
  imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
  exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule { }

Step 2. Update your HTML
Use the routerLinkActive directive to dynamically apply a class to the active menu item. Here’s how you can update your navigation HTML.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Navbar Example</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
  <style>
    .navbar-nav .nav-item a {
      color: black;
      text-decoration: none;
    }
    .navbar-nav .nav-item a:hover {
      color: #0056b3; /* Optional: Change color on hover */
    }
    .navbar-nav .home-link i {
      color: blue;
    }
    .active-link {
      color: blue !important; /* Customize the active link color */
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>

<section class="wrapper megamenu-wraper">
  <div class="">
    <nav class="container navbar navbar-expand-lg main-menu">
      <div class="">
        <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
          <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
        </button>
        <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
          <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a routerLink="/private/po" routerLinkActive="active-link" class="home-link active">
                <i class="fa fa-home"></i>
              </a>
            </li>
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a routerLink="dashboard" routerLinkActive="active-link">Dashboard</a>
            </li>
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a routerLink="default" routerLinkActive="active-link">Student List</a>
            </li>
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a routerLink="camps" routerLinkActive="active-link">Activities</a>
            </li>
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a routerLink="camp-attendence" routerLinkActive="active-link">Attendance</a>
            </li>
            <li class="nav-item">
              <a [routerLink]="['/private/po/actvity-camp', 0]" routerLinkActive="active-link">Create Activity</a>
            </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
      </div>
    </nav>
  </div>
</section>

Explanation
routerLinkActive Directive: This directive applies the specified class (active-link in this case) to the link that matches the current route.
routerLink Directive: This binds the link to the router path.
CSS: The active-link class is styled to indicate the active state.

Step 3. Ensure router module configuration
Make sure your Angular router is correctly configured in your application module (usually app-routing.module.ts).
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { DashboardComponent } from './dashboard/dashboard.component';
import { StudentListComponent } from './student-list/student-list.component';
import { ActivitiesComponent } from './activities/activities.component';
import { AttendanceComponent } from './attendance/attendance.component';
import { CreateActivityComponent } from './create-activity/create-activity.component';
const routes: Routes = [
  { path: 'dashboard', component: DashboardComponent },
  { path: 'default', component: StudentListComponent },
  { path: 'camps', component: ActivitiesComponent },
  { path: 'camp-attendence', component: AttendanceComponent },
  { path: 'private/po/actvity-camp/:id', component: CreateActivityComponent },
  { path: '**', redirectTo: 'dashboard', pathMatch: 'full' }
];
@NgModule({
  imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
  exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule { }

This setup ensures that when you navigate through your app, the active link will be highlighted, providing a better user experience.
