Angular from Scratch
Angular from Scratch
A friendly guide for absolute beginners
About the Book
Complex.
That's a one-word description of Angular for a beginner.
If you're met with the framework for the first time, you likely need it for work.
It's also likely that you're pressed for time, and can't afford the luxury of spending days and days researching, reading difficult documentation, or trying to wrap your head around many Angular concepts.
In this no-fluff book, we pick apart the building blocks of Angular in the first two chapters, giving you the skills to dive straight into building apps in Angular 2+. Every step is explained and each concept is covered so it's easy to understand what is happening and why.
I'm the author of over ten books on front-end web development. Let me guide you through this wonderful framework.
