Angular 15 Masterclass with TypeScript, Firebase, & Material (Udemy.com)

Angular is one of the most popular front-end frameworks for building single-page applications or web apps with HTML, CSS, and TypeScript. So basically, if you want to become a successful front-end or a full-stack developer, that get hired, you need to have Angular as a skill under your belt.

Learning Angular 2 or Angular 4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14 or Angular 15 or simply Angular(as the Angular team likes to call it) on your own can be confusing or frustrating at times. It might require you to browse through several tutorials, articles, YouTube videos, etc, and get a grip on it.

If you want to get rid of going through all that trouble and just focus on learning Angular, this is THE course for you. In this course, I'll take you through an exciting journey of learning Angular concepts through fun and easy to understand coding examples.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to: 

• Build end-to-end Single Page Apps in Angular on your own

• Understand and fix common compile-time and run-time errors in minutes

• Understand and implement clean and maintainable code like a professional

• Apply best practices when building Angular apps

We'll always start with the basics and go from there. Right from the beginning of the second module, you'll jump in and build your first Angular app within minutes.

Angular 2 and all the later versions of Angular has been written in TypeScript. So, before getting started with Angular in section 3, you'll learn the fundamentals of TypeScript and object-oriented programming in section 2 to better understand and appreciate this powerful framework. 

Over the next 15 hours, you'll learn the essentials of building Single Page Applications(SPAs) with Angular: 

• Displaying data and handling DOM events

• Building reusable components

• Manipulating the DOM using directives(both Structural and Attribute)

• Transforming data using pipes

• Building template-driven and reactive forms 

• Consuming REST APIs using HTTP services
