Description

Angular has become one of the most widely used web development frameworks. This course, Angular Fundamentals, will teach you the fundamentals of writing applications with Angular - whether or not you've had past experience with Angular 1. You will learn how to bootstrap an application and how to build pages and reusable elements using Angular Components and the new Angular syntax. You'll also learn the fundamentals of: routing, creating reusable services and dependency injection, building forms with validation, and communicating with the server using HTTP and observables. You'll even learn how to test all of this using unit tests and end-to-end UI tests. When you finish this course, you will have the fundamental knowledge necessary to create professional and personal websites using Angular.

Course Overview
Hey there. This is Jim Cooper. ‑And this is Joe Eames. ‑Welcome to our Pluralsight course, Angular 2 Fundamentals. Joe and I have been developers for a long time, and we've been building large‑scale Angular applications ever since Angular 1's official release. And we're excited to share with you what we've learned about Angular 2. This course will give you all the fundamental knowledge you need in order to start building your own Angular applications, whether for small, fun personal projects or for large enterprise applications. In this course, you'll gain a high‑level understanding of the architecture of Angular applications in addition to a detailed understanding of building applications with Angular. Once we introduce you to the high‑level concepts, we'll spend most of this course actually writing code for a demo application that models real‑world applications. This intermediate‑level course has been designed to help you learn Angular from the ground up. If you feel like things are moving a little too quickly, you can check out one of the beginner‑level courses, but we've tried to make this a course that will teach you the fundamentals, even if you've had no prior experience with Angular. In this course, you'll learn about the following: the architecture of an Angular application and how to bootstrap a new application, Angular components and template syntax, including pipes and directives, creating reusable services and how dependency injection works in Angular, working with forms and validation, making API calls with HTTP and observables, and how to unit test and end‑to‑end test your application, and finally, how to package it all together for production. When you have finished this course, you will know enough about Angular to start building real‑world applications using Angular best practices. The only real prerequisite for this course is that you have some knowledge of JavaScript and HTML, but you certainly don't need to be an expert. So join us as we explore the exciting world of Angular.
