Angular 2 - From the basics to the online shop. A practical guide. Including Pizza.: Based on the first official Release

undefined

The first official release of Angular 2 has finally appeared and the stability of the API is guaranteed, so it's time to take a look at the framework in more detail. Unlike with many manuals, in this book I don't want to bother you with having to study hundreds of pages of theory before you finally get to programme a small specimen. I myself have never enjoyed learning this way. Therefore, this book takes a slightly different approach: we start programming straight away and then study the practical aspect. Sounds simple. It is. In the first three chapters we'll start by installing a development environment and creating a structure for our project. During this I'll tell you what to do and why, step by step. This lays the groundwork and meets all the conditions for programming. In the next chapter we begin, without further ado, to program the basis for a single-page application so we get something on-screen very quickly. In each chapter we then get a little deeper into the world of Angular 2, Typescript and PrimeNg, as I explain to you, alongside development and in short paragraphs, how and why what we are doing works. This is how, chapter by chapter, an e-shop that has all the basic functions such as product overview, a detailed product view, shopping cart, etc. gradually comes into being. In later chapters we look at additional topics such as authentication and restriction, error handling and deployment of the completed application on an Apache Tomcat web server. Every part of the source code that we write expands the project. A comprehensive example. Without exception. Promise! The book is accompanied by a ready-to-download server on the book's website. The server's source code is also included so that you can use it as a basis for experimentation. However, if you'd mainly like to focus on the Angular 2 framework and you're not so interested in the server at that moment, an additional server is available for you to use on the Internet. So it's not obligatory to install the server locally on your computer. By the time you reach the end of the book you'll already have your first project experience with Angular 2 and with the knowledge that you've, almost incidentally, acquired during our project, you can then start your own project without any major problems. Who is this book ed at? This book is not intended as a basic book on programming. You should have at least a little experience with an object-oriented programming language such as Java, C# or JavaScript. It is assumed that you know what a variable, attribute, method or class is. You should also know a little bit about HTML tags and some experience with Cascading Style Sheets is definitely not a disadvantage. If these terms don't yet mean anything to you in relation to programming, then I definitely recommend that you read a basic book on programming before reading this one.
