I have seen many blogs and tutorials about Angular for developers. Here, I am explaining the basics of Angular as per my understanding. I hope you all will like it.
We have a lot of questions in mind about Angular but the first thing you need to know - AngularJS is 1.x and Angular is 2/4.
Why Angular
We have a lot of client-side frameworks and I think few developers are happy with AngularJS (Angular 1.x) so what is the purpose to learn Angular? Nowadays, every developer wants to learn Angular.
Actually, the reason behind is that Angular has become the basic need of our application. Using it, we can easily build the application within a short span of time with all the feature and more importantly, it will work faster then AngularJS application.
The above is the basic reason for the need of Angular. Now, I am going to explain in details with a few main reasons.
- Easier
Angular 2-4 is easier to learn and within a limited time, we can learn it and create the applications with sample CRUD feature.
- Performance
Its performance is way better as compared to AngularJS because the execution is very fast when we perform any operation in the application.
- TypeScript
Nowadays, most of the developer are using TypeScript because it's easier to learn due to based on OOPS concepts. As you know, every developer has knowledge of OOPS so they can learn it in a minimal time.
- Angular Testing Easy
When we work on an Angular project, we can easily test the application by creating the test cases and it's more easy as compare to other .
- Increased Developer Productivity
Angular increases the developer productivity because a developer can easily learn and complete any task or feature quickly.
- Work in Coding pattern
With the help of Angular, you can work on a good consistent coding pattern because it provides codelyzer by which you can write consistent code and discover potential errors.
- Angular uses full featured Routing
Routing is yet another great feature of Angular. Angular performs navigation from one view to another and works very fast. It supports lazy loading that allows you to load the pieces of code on demand means entire code will not run one time.
- Easily build and use only required file
When we build the Angular v2 - v4 application, the application will build and required file will store in a dist file. In the dist folder, only necessary files will be saved. Now, the entire files within dist folder can be added whenever you want to use the application on the server.
I hope you all have liked it. My next tutorial will be about getting starting with the basic Angular application.
