Book Description

Angular is the modern framework you need to build performant and robust web applications. This book is the quickest way to get to grips with Angular 2 and will help you transition to the brave new world of Angular 2.

It starts with an overview putting the changes of the framework in context with version 1.x. After that, you will be taken on a TypeScript crash-course so you can take advantage of Angular 2 in its native, statically-typed environment. We'll look at the new change-detection method in detail, how Directives and Components have changed how you create websites with Angular, the new Angular 2 router, and much more.
