Angular 2+ Send data from child to parent component

Question

I have a "parent" component that contains an array of employees displayed on a list. Inside this component, there's a "detail" component that receives an "employee" object, changes it's attributes and then must send it to back to the list of employees in the parent component, but I'm struggling to find a good solution for it. I've already made a research on the internet, but couldn't find a proper solution.

Any tips?

I currently have 5 days of experience with Angular/web development, so I'm sorry if this a silly question.

Check out the angular docs they are very good. I would use a event EventEmitter and input bindings.
