Avoid having to put the client bootstrap in DOMContentLoaded for TransferState to work properly

[vikerman]

Currently the client of a SSR Angular app needs to wait for DOMContentLoaded to complete before bootstrapping so that TransferState can reliably get the contents of the transferred state from the DOM.

Need to investigate whether we can handle this more transparently without the user needing to bootstrap in a specific way on the client side.

@vikerman do you suggest doing something like this?

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
  platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
});

Thank you for submitting your feature request! Looks like during the polling process it didn't collect a sufficient number of votes to move to the next stage.

We want to keep Angular rich and ergonomic and at the same time be mindful about its scope and learning journey. If you think your request could live outside Angular's scope, we'd encourage you to collaborate with the community on publishing it as an open source package.

Thanks this made us to understand why a critical bug happens just some times. I agree this should be part of angular function but anyway is good that there is a easy fix for it.

The script tag that loads the main.js file can be deferred using the defer attribute.
