Description

NativeScript is an open source framework that is built by Progress in order to build truly native mobile apps with TypeScript, JavaScript or just Angular which is an open source framework built by Google that offers declarative templates, dependency injection, and fully featured modules to build rich applications. Angular’s versatile view handling architecture allows your views to be rendered as highly performant UI components native to iOS and Android mobile platforms. This decoupling of the view rendering layer in Angular combined with the power of native APIs with NativeScript have together created the powerful and exciting technology stack of NativeScript for Angular.

The structure of the book takes the reader from a void to a deployed app on both the App Store and Google Play, serving as a reference guide and valuable tips/tricks handbook. By the end of this book, you’ll know majority of key concepts needed to build a successful NativeScript for Angular app.

The book ensures that you start thinking about organizing your app in a very modularized fashion. I'd honestly have preferred if it started with defining component a basic component layout and then iterating over it by adding the extra modules, services, etc instead of the other way around, but it's alright. If you don't know any Angular or Typescript, do yourself a favor and go learn that stuff before coming to this book as it assumes you have a working knowledge of those technologies.

I agree with Dan

Maybe I don't know enough about Angular but this book was VERY COMPLICATED to follow. There are pages and pages of code pieces that create different components of a well structured application, but I didn't think there was enough time spent explaining the samples. I downloaded the code from the publishers site thinking that it would help but it would not run. This book seems very new so I hope that it gets better over time. It could be very useful but it didn't work for me right now :(
