Free eBook from Infragistics: Angular Essentials

If you’re a web developer, you’ve not doubt been spending more time at least thinking about JavaScript. Frameworks and libraries like Knockout and React have given web developers the tools they need to create great, client-side web applications. Angular, from Google, is arguably the most popular of these client-side JavaScript application frameworks.

As with anything in software development, change comes quickly. If you previously worked with Angular JS (the precursor to Angular) or have written a web application using the jQuery library, Angular can seem quite alien. With its basis in a component based architecture, Angular applications are probably quite a bit different than what you might be used to.

If you’ve been looking for a great resource to learn Angular, beyond the simple, happy-path “Hello World” tasks, you’re in luck. Infragistics has created a great new resource: The Angular Essentials e-book. This book provides all the information you need to add Angular to your toolbox, even if you’ve never worked with Angular, or any other client-side JavaScript framework.
