You will be introduced to various aspects of Angular including components, directives and services. You will learn about data binding, Angular router and its use for developing single-page applications. You will also learn about designing both template-driven forms and reactive forms. A quick introduction to Observables, reactive programming and RxJS in the context of Angular is included. You will then learn about Angular support for client-server communication and the use of REST API on the server side. You will use Restangular for communicating with a server supporting the REST API. A quick tour through Angular animation support and Angular testing rounds off the course. You must have either completed the previous course in the specialization on Bootstrap 4, or have a working knowledge of front end web-UI frameworks to be able to navigate this course. Also a good working knowledge of JavaScript, especially ES 5 is strongly recommended.
At the end of this course you will:

  • Be familiar with client-side Javascript frameworks and the Angular framework
  • Be able to implement single page applications in Angular
  • Be able to use various Angular features including directives, components and services
  • Be able to implement a functional front-end web application using Angular
  • Be able to use Angular Material and Angular Flex-Layout for designing responsive Angular applications
  • Be able to use Observables and RxJS in the context of Angular applications
