Angular Projects

Chapter 2: Building an SPA Application with Scully and Angular Router

Angular applications follow the Single Page Application (SPA) architecture, where different views of the web page can be activated according to the browser URL. Any changes to that URL can be intercepted by the Angular router and translated to routes that can activate a particular Angular component.

Scully is a popular static website generator that is based on the Jamstack architecture. It can cooperate nicely with the Angular router to prerender the content of an Angular application according to each route.

In this chapter, we are going to combine Angular and Scully to create a personal blog. The following topics are going to be covered:

  • Setting up routing in an Angular application
  • Creating the basic layout of our blog
  • Configuring routing for our application
  • Adding blog capabilities with Scully
  • Displaying blog posts on the home page

Key benefits

  • Explore Angular's capabilities for building applications across different platforms
  • Combine popular web technologies with Angular such as monorepo, Jamstack, and PWA
  • Build your own libraries and schematics using Angular CDK and Angular CLI

Description

Packed with practical advice and detailed recipes, this updated second edition of Angular Projects will teach you everything you need to know to build efficient and optimized web applications using Angular. Among the things you’ll learn in this book are the essential features of the framework, which you’ll master by creating ten different real-world web applications. Each application will demonstrate how to integrate Angular with a different library and tool. As you advance, you’ll familiarize yourself with implementing popular technologies, such as Angular Router, Scully, Electron, Angular service worker, Nx monorepo tools, NgRx, and more while building an issue tracking system. You’ll also work on a PWA weather application, a mobile photo geotagging application, a component UI library, and many other exciting projects. In the later chapters, you’ll get to grips with customizing Angular CLI commands using schematics. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to be able to build Angular apps using a variety of different technologies according to your or your client’s needs.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers with beginner-level Angular experience who want to become proficient in using essential tools and dealing with the various use cases they may encounter in Angular. Beginner-level knowledge of web application development and basic experience working with ES6 or TypeScript is essential before you dive in.

What you will learn

  • Set up Angular applications using Angular CLI and Nx Console
  • Create a personal blog with Jamstack and SPA techniques
  • Build desktop applications with Angular and Electron
  • Enhance user experience (UX) in offline mode with PWA techniques
  • Make web pages SEO-friendly with server-side rendering
  • Create a monorepo application using Nx tools and NgRx for state management
  • Focus on mobile application development using Ionic

This book is extremely useful.Aris goes through using your existing Angular skills in order to build different types of applications.I've always been curious and wanted to be able to use Angular for more than a web app, and this book helps full-fill that curiosity!You end up with a working project at the end of each chapter, which is really nice for referencing in your other personal projects when you need help.One great thing about how the book is laid out is that you can just dip into the technology you care about.This book exposes you to real world APIs like OpenWeather, & Firebase.The practice questions at the end of each chapter give you a chance to think about what you've learned; and the further reading links give you a place to continue your learning.----------------------------Below I list the different technologies covered in the book.I wanted to use these for a long time:- Electron: So cool to be able to turn your web app into a cross platform desktop app.- Service Workers: Wonderful to have your app working offline.- PWA (progressive web app): Allow users to save your web app as a native looking app on Android, and Windows.I will be using these soon:- NX Monorepo: Super when working on many large apps and libs- NgRx: Wonderful if you have lots of custom data sources/stores and want to bring in some more power and consistency.I already use:- Web app- NG Router- Reactive FormsI heard of these before and always wanted to know more:- Scully: Static site generator, like Gatsby from React for Angular. Great for a JAMStack architecture.- Capacitor: Turn your existing Angular app into a mobile app, no need for Ionic (from the Ionic team).- SSR: Server Side Render using Angular Universal -- Angulars idea of a static site, not as good as Scully in my opinion, but good to get SEO stats up.- Angular CDK: use these advanced APIs from Angular Material to built advanced custom Material components.- Custom Schematics: Create your own automation by creating your own schematics. This is something I've always wanted to do so I could have projects generated in the way I need them.Other interesting tech included:- Clarity UI library: interesting alternative to Angular Material.- Bulma CSS framework.- Tailwind CSS framework.----------------------------One negative I have is that the screenshots are blurry, and the blocks of code would be easier to read if they were colour coded and not black on grey.All in all this book will really give you an insight into all the ways Angular can be used and will open your eyes to the potential that is available with the Angular eco-system.

I recently purchased Angular Projects: Build Modern Web Apps by Exploring Angular 12 with 10 Different Projects and have been thoroughly enjoying it. The book is laid out in an easy-to-understand way, with clear explanations and helpful examples. As someone new to Angular, I appreciate the step-by-step approach of the projects, which have allowed me to gradually build my skills and confidence. And, as a bonus, the author even managed to sneak in a few jokes here and there to keep things light and fun. All in all, I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to dive into Angular and build some awesome modern web apps. So far, it's been a real "angular" of a good time!

Angular comes out with new versions every 6 months so even tho this book is just a few years old, there were a lot of dependencies and code updates that needed to be done, however, I was able to get all of the projects running with Angular 15. Some of the libraries are also outdated. There is a github repo that has some updates to account for this (for example, the firebase configurations are no longer accurate but the github repo has the correct ones).Because of this, I would say this isn't completely beginner friendly unless you're okay with doing some debugging and coding yourself to get things running.

Angular Projects was an informative read on several fronts, the diversity of the projects and the detail in the projects coupled with the fact that they were concise and there was little "fluff". The book is a good reference for developers of any level as each project guides the user through the code. Some of the projects are definitely geared to more complex use cases and it was nice to see the capabilities of Angular celebrated, as it can be employed in nearly any project, web, mobile, desktop (electron), Angular Universal for Server Side Rendering, library creation, schematics etc.

Excellent tour through best practices in Angular development. In addition, I'm learning about key Angular patterns, tools, and technologies. There's so much content that I'm sure it will be a great reference for a long time.The built in patterns in Angular automatically inform and mirror best practices for server side.This book covers a gambit of topics and technologies allowing a junior developer to easily pick it up and rapidly improve their skills. If you are a senior developer that has working in older angular versions or wants to get into it I would highly recommend this bookI find it refreshing to be able to follow a similar train of thought between server and front end. Great book for experienced developers looking to dive into Angular applications.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.
