Derivates Table

Derivative Name	Description
focusable	It makes the input field to be focusable.
editable	It registers an event listener, which calls the component’s method whenever the user clicks ‘enter’ to change its state from edit to view.
view	It is responsible for exposing a reference to their TemplateRef (For View).
edit	It is responsible for exposing a reference to their TemplateRef (For Edit).

Output Events

Currently Only one event is emitted which is onStateChange. This is emitted when we switch back to view mode from edit mode using this we can check whether new value is equal to old value or use it for any other purpose.
