Intro to AngularJS
Getting Angular with Javascript
Taught by Ken Rimple, Director of Training and Mentoring Services for Chariot Solutions
This is the framework that has caught on like wildfire in the enterprise developer community. Just about everybody in tech has had a discussion about AngularJS - they love it, they hate it, they don't understand it, they want to learn it. And why are they rewriting it???
Cut through the hype and learn the basics of AngularJS - you'll find out how to quickly assemble a single-page Javascript application. You'll start out by using only your web browser and your imagination. We'll practice building AngularJS applications (known as modules), play with templates, build controllers, store data in services, and wind up accessing data using HTTP.
We'll wrap up with some Q&A and discuss how the Angular team is looking toward the future of HTML web applications and Javascript 1.6 with the long-term release of Angular 2.0, and how the team is planning to support Angular 1.x applications far into the future.
Bring your laptop, a modern web browser (Chrome suggested) and your favorite editor, and let's get down to coding and testing.
