Book Description
Develop your front-end expertise and build scalable, enterprise-ready web applications by efficiently using the Angular framework’s powerful features and essential librariesKey FeaturesImplement design patterns and Nx for optimal maintainability and scalability of your code baseExplore reactive programming and state management using RxJS, Signals, and NgRxBuild and test large-scale Angular monorepo applications using Nx, Jest, and CypressPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionAngular is an open-source, front-end framework used to build web applications using TypeScript. Angular is a component-based framework, which means you build apps by developing and composing reusable components. This framework has all the built-in features needed to develop complex, feature-rich web apps. Written by an Angular specialist working with some of the top companies in the Netherlands, this book teaches you how to harness the full potential of the Angular framework.You’ll explore different front-end architecture designs and set up a scalable environment for Angular applications and libraries using Nx, before taking a deep dive into the framework’s newest and most powerful features. Next, you’ll learn to manipulate the Document Object Model (DOM) with Angular directives, pipes, and animations, and build reusable components like a pro. The book spotlights best practices and flags potential pitfalls at every step of the way. You’ll also learn design patterns that fit well when using the Angular framework, reactive programming with RxJS and Angular signals, and how to manage application states effectively. The book teaches you about accessibility, testing, and optimizing your app for deployment.By the end of this book, you’ll be able to use Angular effectively to build enterprise-ready, scalable front-end applications.What you will learnCreate Nx monorepos ready to handle hundreds of Angular applicationsReduce complexity in Angular with the standalone API, inject function, control flow, and SignalsEffectively manage application state using Signals, RxJS, and NgRxBuild dynamic components with projection, TemplateRef, and defer blocksPerform end-to-end and unit testing in Angular with Cypress and JestOptimize Angular performance, prevent bad practices, and automate deploymentsWho this book is forIf you are a front-end engineer ready to level up your Angular skills, then this book is for you.
