Answer 1

#Mehdi said, you should not access DOM directly untill there is a need.
Always keep in mind, drive your view with data rather than accessing
DOM directly

Answer 2

When using Angular, you don't want to directly manipulate the DOM element. Rather let angular deal with it.
In your example, you can generate your list from an array you declare in the code like so
export class YourClass{
links:any;
activeLink = -1;
//...
constructor(){
this.links = ['ONE','TWO','THREE']
}
//...
}
and then in your template you could have :
<ul>
<li *ngFor="let link of links; let i = index"
(click)="activeLink = i"
[ngClass]="activeLink == i? 'blue' : '' " >
</li>
</ul>
and declare a css class blue :
.blue{
color:blue;
}
