extends ../../../ts/_cache/guide/lifecycle-hooks.jade block includes include ../_util-fns block other-angular-subsystems :marked The router, for instance, also has its own [router lifecycle hooks](router.html#router-lifecycle-hooks) that allow us to tap into specific moments in route navigation. A parallel can be drawn between `ngOnInit` and `routerOnActivate`. Both are prefixed so as to avoid collision, and both run right when a component is being initialized. block tick-methods :marked The `LoggerService.tick` method, which returns a `Future`, postpones the update one turn of the of the browser's update cycle ... and that's long enough.
