Angular 10 Online Course

About the Course

This course will take you on an exciting journey to learning Angular concepts with the help of enjoyable and easy-to-understand coding examples. Angular is one of the most popular frontend frameworks for building SPAs or web apps with HTML, CSS, and TypeScript. If you want to become a successful frontend or full-stack developer, Angular skills are a must-have. You'll start by understanding what Single Page Applications are and why you should use Angular to build them. You'll then explore Angular modules, the @NgModule decorator, the Angular Application Bootstrap Mechanism, Angular Components, the @Component decorator, component communication, and lifecycle hooks.

As you advance, you'll learn to build your first Angular app within minutes. Before you delve into Angular 2 and later versions of Angular, which are all written in TypeScript, you'll learn the fundamentals of TypeScript and object-oriented programming to better understand and appreciate this powerful framework. You'll also discover best practices for building Angular apps. By the end of this course, you'll be able to build end-to-end SPAs in Angular on your own, understand and fix common compile-time and runtime errors quickly, and implement clean and maintainable code like a professional.
