Description
Hello, and welcome to Angular: First Look, part of the AngularJS Learning Path here at Pluralsight. My name is John Papa, and I’m looking forward to helping you understand the changes that Angular 2 brings, how they compare to Angular 1, and provide an understanding of the architecture and how the core concepts work together to build applications.
Along the way, you’re going to be learning about things like:
- how your Angular 1 skills translate and prepare you to build Angular 2 applications
- code samples focusing on specific features including Angular 2 components
- templates directives, data binding syntax, modules, dependency injection, and routing
- as well as HTTP, pipes, and services
Course FAQ
Angular 2 is a more streamlined framework that allows programmers to focus on simply building JavaScript classes. Views and controllers are replaced with components, which can be described as a refined version of directives.
In this course, you will learn about Angular 2's components and templates, syntax including data binding, services using dependency injection, routing, HTTP and Data, observability with RxJS, and how Angular modules help organize code.
Prerequisites for this course would be an understanding of JavaScript basics.
Angular is most often used by beginner programmers who have less experience with JavaScript to create applications and web app frameworks.
Some of the benefits of Angular are: two-way data binding, directives, strong community, dependency rejection, reusability, and readability.
