But this!

"Frameworks may come and go , concepts remains the same - Sajee"

The following piece of talk has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience and strictly not for Beginners

"HEROES DON'T ALWAYS WEAR CAPES

SOMETIMES THEY CODE ANGULAR"

  • A framework for web front-end app 

  • A platform for integrated development

  • An ecosystem for developers

Angular as a Framework

 

  •       Batteries Included
  •       Easy to learn
  •       Qualified
  •       Full stack for modern web app

From Framework to platform

Angular As an Ecosystem

Lets see some of it's Core Concepts!

Building Blocks of Angular

  • Module
  • Services
  • Component
  • Pipes
  • Directives
  • Dependency Injection

Angular App Structure

Application Source

Our application is divided in two parts. -Application itself & Application bootstrap

Angular App

Our modules, routes, components & services live here.

Angular Boostrap

We bootstrap our app depending on what platform were developing for, and add any required polyfills & vendors.

Configuration

Typescript config, npm packages, scripts, webpack config, express server, and so on...

@kokkisajee

@Module

import {BrowserModule} from '@angular/platform-browser';
import {NgModule} from '@angular/core';
import {FormsModule} from '@angular/forms';
import {HttpModule} from '@angular/http';

import {AppComponent} from './app.component';
import { HomeComponent } from './home/home.component';
import {AppRoutingModule} from "./app-routing.module";

@NgModule({
    declarations: [
        AppComponent,
        HomeComponent
    ],
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        FormsModule,
        HttpModule,
        AppRoutingModule
    ],
    providers: [/**DataService, UserService**/],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
}

Help organize an application into cohesive blocks of functionality.

This is Angular

The rest is a standard JS/Typescript class

@kokkisajee

@Component

import {Component, OnInit} from '@angular/core';
import {Router} from "@angular/router";
import {UserService} from "../shared/services/user.service";

@Component({
    selector: 'app-login',
    templateUrl: './login.component.html',
    styleUrls: ['./login.component.scss']
})

export class LoginComponent implements OnInit {

    constructor(private us:UserService, private route: Router) {
    }

    ngOnInit() {
    }

    login() {
        this.us.login();
    }

    logout() {
        this.us.logout();
    }
}

Components are the most basic building block of an UI in an Angular application

Decorator

Annotate this is a Angular component

Angular Injects for us every dependency

@kokkisajee

@Directives

Components still have directives

<div [ngStyle]="setStyles()">
  <p *ngFor="let player of players">...</p>
</div>
  • No more ng-show, ng-hide, ng-click but functionality is still available
  • Types of Angular Directives :

Attribute Directives : ngStyle, ngClass, …Structural Directives : ngIf, ngSwitch, ngFor, …

@kokkisajee

Pipes

Components can display formatted data

import { Pipe } from '@angular/core';
import { PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';
@Pipe({name: 'filterReviewByStatus'})
export class FilterReviewByStatusPipe implements PipeTransform {


}

DatePipe, UpperCasePipe, LowerCasePipe, CurrencyPipe, PercentPipe ...

<p>
    The chained mario's birthday is 
    {{  birthday | date:'fullDate' | uppercase}}
</p>

Services

Service is a class that encapsulates some sort of functionality and provides it as a service for the rest of the application

export class UserService {
  private users: User[] = [];

  constructor(
    private backend: BackendService,
    private logger: Logger
  ) { ... }

  getAllUSers() {
    return this.users;
  }
}

@kokkisajee

Data Model

View

@Component({
  template: "<h1>{{title}}</h1>"
})
class MyComponent {
  title = "Hello!";
}
<h1>Hello!</h1>

Angular Router

  • URL-Component Mapping
  • Guard & Resolve
  • Nesting
  • Lazy-Loading

Angular CLI

  • Scaffold Angular project
  • Generate code
  • Debug
  • Test
  • Lint
  • Deploy
