Course description
AngularJS is a client sided JavaScript framework for the realization of web applications following the MV * pattern ( “Model-View-whatever). AngularJS, also known as Angular 1, was originally developed at Google, but we’ve seen a large and active open source community grown around AngularJS. Angular is currently used in large enterprise environments like banks, insurance companies, government and semi-government environments and more. Even though Angular 2 was released in late 2016, AngularJS is still one of the biggest web development frameworks in the world. With AngularJS you can quickly build modular, scalable and testable HTML5 web applications.
AngularJS applications typically adhere to the single-page application principle (SPA). All the logic of the application is centralized in client-sided controllers and services. Views are loaded when the visitor navigates to a specific part of the application. The built-in two-way data binding of AngularJS ensures that data that is modified by users, is reflected in the model. AngularJS provides routing and service/factory capabilities that enable you to create a complete apps within a single, basic HTML page. The training also deals with retrieving and storing data via RESTful API’s.
