Angular 2 is a complete redesign of its predecessor, which aims to bring forward the best features of the original whilst correcting or replacing its flaws. This new Angular is based around a strongly typed language (Type Script), adopts a component based architecture and provides fine grained control over the type and extent of data binding performed. This course introduces all the features of Angular 2 via sample applications of increasing complexity. It will enable experienced client side developers to immediately begin creating Single Page Applications that interact with REST ful services. As the course progresses the official Angular Style Guide (maintained by John Papa) will be continually referenced and there will be a strong focus on writing unit and integration tests alongside the components and applications.
