About this Item

Paperback. DESCRIPTION Angular 2 is a JavaScript-based development platform for building dynamic, interactive web applications, SPAs, and mobile apps. Angular applications can be built with JavaScript or TypeScript. TypeScript offers great IDE support and the TypeScript compiler helps coders quickly find and fix errors. TypeScript feels familiar, much like using ES6 with the same standard and third-party libraries, idioms, and tools. TypeScript supports classes, modules, annotations, and lazy loading and minimizes the amount of code for supporting the frameworks life cycle, letting developers focus on writing the application code. Angular 2 Development with Typescript teaches the reader Angular 2, while it also teaches TypeScript and how to take advantage of its benefits. This hands-on book begins with an overview of Angular 2 architecture and an introduction to the online auction application that will be developed throughout the book. It teaches TypeScript and how to write classes, interfaces, and generics, as well as how to transpile TypeScript code into todays JavaScript that can be deployed in all Web browsers. More topics include data and views, user interaction with forms, and communicating with servers. Finally, the book shows how to test and deploy Angular 2 applications. KEY FEATURES Lots of hands-on examples Teaches the TypeScript language Shows how to convert TypeScript into JavaScript that can be deployed in all Web browsers AUDIENCE This book is for developers with a working knowledge of JavaScript.

About the Technology

Whether you're building web clients or full-featured SPAs, using the Angular 2 web framework is a liberating experience. Its declarative style makes it easy to define and add features without a lot of manually written boilerplate, and the fully integrated TypeScript language gives you the benefits of a statically typed language within the JavaScript ecosystem. Not to mention that adding Angular 2 and TypeScript to your skill set makes you a hot commodity.

About the Book

Angular 2 Development with Typescript introduces Angular 2 to developers comfortable using AngularJS v1 or other web frameworks. You'll start by exploring how Angular 2 works in an online auction application. Along the way, you'll learn to use TypeScript to write type-aware classes, interfaces, and generics. This is a practical book that covers real-world development concerns like data and views, user interaction with forms, and communicating with servers, as well as testing and deploying your Angular 2 applications.
