Geared for experienced web developers, our Introduction to Angular Essentials 20 is a three-day, comprehensive hands-on program that explores the latest features and benefits Angular has to offer. Throughout the course you'll learn the practical "real-world" foundational and advanced Angular skills required to solve the usual challenges you might face when developing modern web applications with TypeScript.


Kicking off with an in-depth introduction to Angular CLI and TypeScript, the course propels you into the world of component-driven development, touching on vital topics like data-binding, directives, and services. As you advance through the curriculum, you'll explore SPA routing and Reactive forms.


By the end of this course, you will have built a comprehensive application that brings together all these elements: website structuring through components, dynamic interactivity via directives, and custom pipes for content refinement. You will know how to employ reactive forms for active user engagement and SPA routing for fluid navigation.


You will leave the course equipped to construct robust, scalable, and feature-rich web applications using Angular 20.
