Food Delivery App 7 - Introduction to Angular for Web Backend Dev
What Is Angular?
Angular is a TypeScript-based open-source web application framework led by the Angular Team at Google and by a community of individuals and corporations. Angular is a complete rewrite from the same team that built AngularJS (Wikipedia)
Although that is a nice description. It really does not tell us much. We can pick out a few things.
- It it TypeScript-based. That’s important. It means at some point you will need to learn TypeScript. Here is a beginner’s guide.
- It is open-source (free).
- It is for building web applications.
- It is a framework (unlike React which is made up of libraries). The difference? Inversion of Control
Development
Step One-Installation of The Angular CLI
With our tools installed, we will start our application by using the Angular Command Line Interface or CLI. This is the recommended method for starting a new project.
We will need a directory on your computer to store the application. You can create this as desired but mine will be simply be named FirstAngularApp. This is a folder for your application, not the application name. That will come later.
Open VSCode and open the folder in which you want your application (FirstAngularApp.)
