gzipping in Angular Universal

Question

I'd like to improve the loading speed of my website and read online that gzipping would help reduce the file size. However, if I add:

const compression = require('compression')
server.use(compression);

inside the app() function in the server.ts file, the website keeps loading forever without throwing any errors.

How do I fix this issue?

Answer 1

compression is a function. You just need to call it:

server.use(compression());
