In this course, Angular experts John Papa and Ward Bell build an Angular 2 app from scratch. You’ll learn about the various options for spinning up an Angular 2 app, including the Angular 2 QuickStart on Github. Once installed, you’ll see John and Ward add test coverage (and learn why Ward insists on end-to-end testing), work through building components, data binding, dependency injection, and handling HTTP requests. Along the way, you’ll learn best practices from two Angular masters, and valuable tips that will help you write better code and take advantage of powerful Angular features.
