# Strict mode
-When you create a new workspace or an application you have an option to create them in a strict mode using the `--strict` flag.
+Angular CLI creates all new workspaces and projects with **strict mode** enabled.
-Enabling this flag initializes your new workspace or application with a few new settings that improve maintainability, help you catch bugs ahead of time.
-Additionally, applications that use these stricter settings are easier to statically analyze, which can help the `ng update` command refactor code more safely and precisely when you are updating to future versions of Angular.

If you still have issues after troubleshooting with these flags, you can fall back to full mode by disabling `strictTemplates`.
