Effective Angular

Part 1:Angular Basics and Setting Up Scalable Nx Workspaces

In this part, you’ll learn about frontend architecture and what to consider when creating your workspace. Additionally, you’ll set up your own Nx monorepo, which is ready to handle hundreds of Angular applications and libraries. After creating your Nx monorepo, you’ll learn about the newest features in the Angular framework, such as signals and standalone components. When you’re fully up to date with the latest developments of the Angular framework, you’ll do a deep dive into the Angular router, component communication, and dependency injection. Then, you will get hands-on experience with Angular directives, pipes, and animations and learn about the best practices, their impact on performance, and common pitfalls when using directives, pipes, or animations. You will finish the first part by creating template-driven, reactive, and dynamic forms, understanding their differences when you use each method and how you can adequately validate them.

This part includes the following chapters:

  • Chapter 1, Scalable Front-End Architecture for Angular Applications
  • Chapter 2, Powerful Angular Features
  • Chapter 3, Enhancing Your Applications with Directives, Pipes, and Animations
  • Chapter 4, Building Forms Like a Pro

Description

Angular 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.

Who is this book for?

If you are a front-end engineer ready to level up your Angular skills, then this book is for you. This book will help you learn how to build applications of any scale by utilizing the powerful features of the Angular framework. Basic knowledge of the Angular framework will enable you to grasp the concepts explained in this book, including the newest Angular features such as standalone components, Signals, control flow, front-end architecture, building Angular monorepo applications using Nx, reactive programming with RxJS, and managing application state with NgRx.

What you will learn

  • Create Nx monorepos ready to handle hundreds of Angular applications
  • Reduce complexity in Angular with the standalone API, inject function, control flow, and Signals
  • Effectively manage application state using Signals, RxJS, and NgRx
  • Build dynamic components with projection, TemplateRef, and defer blocks
  • Perform end-to-end and unit testing in Angular with Cypress and Jest
  • Optimize Angular performance, prevent bad practices, and automate deployments

The book is well-structured, covering a range of advanced topics with practical examples that make complex concepts easier to grasp.I found the chapters on optimizing performance and maintaining clean, scalable code particularly valuable. They gave me actionable insights that I could apply right away in my own projects. It’s not just about learning new techniques; it’s about adopting a mindset of continuous improvement in development.Roberto’s writing is clear and concise, making it suitable for both experienced developers and those looking to level up their Angular knowledge.From Cristi Calaras

There is a lot that goes into a solid Angular application: state, structure, routing, style, tests, and accessibility to name a few. These aspects and more are fleshed out over the course of the book in a nice layered approach.The order of topics gets things right:1) Describe the foundation (Nx, modern Angular conventions like standalone/signals/etc),2) Go over different different possible patterns for setting up a code base, and then...3) Commit to some approaches and flesh out the app with the particulars (forms, tests, reactivity, and much more).The structure of the book also goes hand in hand with its foundation, built on Nx. The book's structure naturally falls into place with the progression of generating an app piece by piece with all the tools that it provides, but of course Roberto was truly the one at the wheel. Anyone could create an app step by step like this, but it takes a lot of context and experience to demonstrate the importance; context Roberto gives, from foreshadowing to demonstration and then reflection. For example, in the last year at work I have been very obsessed with reactivity. To be honest, I kind of build from the ground up with it in mind and sometimes look beyond the bigger picture. Roberto covers reactivity in the sort of depth I was hoping for, but doesn't start with it and focus solely on it. Reactivity is covered in detail in its own section at the right time and brought up as it is relevant, but it is just one of many pieces covered with the right breadth and depth that a solid foundation requires. Overall, the progression of the variety of Angular application functionality came across as quite natural and relevant.A solid solid foundation with both breadth and depth. Even though I don't use various libraries or paradigms covered in some parts, there is still takeaways to be made if you are looking for a comprehensive journey through making a solid Angular app. In short: this book is good stuff.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
