Angular Architecture and Best Practices

Course Overview
(Music) Welcome to the Angular Architecture and Best Practices course. My name's Dan Wahlin, and I'm a software developer, architect, and trainer specializing in web technologies. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work with many companies around the world on front end and back-end architecture, and I'm really excited to share some of the information I've learned with you. Application architecture is a big topic, and one that can be very subjective, so the overall goal of this course is to provide you with solid, proven guides that can be used as you plan and build your applications. The course starts out by discussing key architecture considerations to take into account when doing initial planning of your application. Over the years, I've created a simple architecture planning template that I use with companies, and I'll show you how you can get started using it. From there, you'll learn how to structure features and modules in a self-contained manner that allows team members to develop and deploy features independently. Sharing functionality across an application or across multiple applications is also key as you plan any architecture, and you'll learn about the role that custom Angular libraries can play there. As the course progresses, you'll learn about the container presentation pattern and how it can be used to structure components, component communication techniques, and the importance of RxJS subjects, and learn about the need for state management and the different options that exist. Finally, additional considerations such as pipes versus functions and different RxJS operators that can be used with HTTP calls will also be covered. So, let's get started and jump right in.
