Interacting with the clipboard

The Angular CDK library contains a collection of Angular artifacts that we can use to interact with the system clipboard.

   ng generate component copy-button --project=ui-controls --export

2. Export the newly generated component from the public-api.ts file, as follows:

   export * from './lib/ui-controls.service';

   export * from './lib/card-list/card-list.component';
   export * from './lib/card';
