Creating a Basic Angular App
In this chapter, we'll design and build a simple Local Weather app using Angular and a third-party web API with an iterative development methodology. We'll focus on delivering value first while learning about the nuances and optimal ways of using Angular, TypeScript, Visual Studio (VS) Code, Reactive Programming, and RxJS. Before we dive into coding, we need to build a roadmap of features, create a mock-up of the application we intend to build, and diagram the high-level architecture of our app.
You'll be introduced to Angular fundamentals to build a simple web app and become familiar with the new Angular platform and full-stack architecture.
In this chapter, you are going to learn the following:
- Planning out your roadmap using GitHub projects
- Using a Kanban board to enable collaboration and effortless information radiation
- Crafting a new UI element to display current weather information using Angular components...
