Angular Design Patterns

Angular Bootstrapping

After Chapter 1, Typescript Best Practices, we can dive into Angular itself. One of the focuses of Angular was to drastically improve the performance and loading time of Angular applications compared to AngularJS. The performance improvements are outstanding. According to the Angular team and various benchmarks, Angular 2 is between five and eight times faster than Angular 1.

Now, to achieve this kind of improvement, Google engineers did not build upon AngularJS; instead, they created Angular from scratch. Consequently, having worked with Angular 1 for some time, this will not give you a sizable edge over newcomers to the Angular world when it comes to developing Angular applications.

In this chapter, we will do the following:

  • I will first present the major architectural concepts behind Angular.
  • Then, we will bootstrap an Angular application using the newly...

Architectural overview

In this section, I will present the main building blocks of Angular applications: Service, Component, Template, and Directive. We will also learn what problems are solved by dependency injection, decorators, and zones.

Now, if you picked this book off the (virtual) shelf, you likely have some experience with Angular and want to improve your applications with good practices and design patterns. Therefore, you should have some knowledge about the general architecture of Angular building blocks.

Nevertheless, a quick and pragmatic reminder should not hurt much, and we can be sure that we have a solid architectural basis to build our patterns upon.

Here is an overview of how the main Angular 2 building blocks interact with each other:

High-level architecture of an Angular 2 application

In what follows, I will present an example of each Angular 2 building block...

Angular CLI

The Angular CLI is a very simple, yet extremely useful, node package that takes the form of a command-line tool. The purpose of this tool is to take away most of the pain of getting started with Angular 2. The problem with any application based on a framework is to know how to bootstrap things for your code to communicate smoothly with the framework's features and libraries.

This tool, provided directly by the Angular team, provides working blueprints for ready-to-go applications. Indeed, by using one simple command we can generate a complete boilerplate for Angular that can be transpiled, run locally, tested, and even deployed to GitHub pages.

Installation

Installing the Angular CLI is dead simple as it&apos...

Summary

In this chapter, we have completed an overview of the Angular building blocks and seen how they interact with each other. We have also created a relatively simple application manipulating Floyd arrays. Finally, we learned how to use the Angular CLI to create new applications, components, services, directives, and pipes using the command line.

In the next chapter, we will focus on Angular good practices. We will discover the "do's and don'ts" recommended by Google engineers in a practical way.

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

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. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
