Overview of this book

<p>If you have been burnt by unreliable JavaScript frameworks before, you will be amazed by the maturity of the Angular platform. Angular enables you to build fast, efficient, and real-world web apps. In this Learning Path, you'll learn Angular and to deliver high-quality and production-grade Angular apps from design to deployment.</p> <p>You will begin by creating a simple fitness app, using the building blocks of Angular, and make your final app, Personal Trainer, by morphing the workout app into a full-fledged personal workout builder and runner with an advanced directive building - the most fundamental and powerful feature of Angular.</p> <p>You will learn the different ways of architecting Angular applications using RxJS, and some of the patterns that are involved in it. Later you’ll be introduced to the router-first architecture, a seven-step approach to designing and developing mid-to-large line-of-business apps, along with popular recipes. By the end of this book, you will be familiar with the scope of web development using Angular, Swagger, and Docker, learning patterns and practices to be successful as an individual developer on the web or as a team in the Enterprise.</p> <p>This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:</p> <p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•Angular 6 by Example by Chandermani Arora, Kevin Hennessy&nbsp;</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent;">•Architecting Angular Applications with Redux, RxJS, and NgRx by Christoffer Noring</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent;">•Angular 6 for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications by Doguhan Uluca</span></p>

Continuous Integration


The aim of Continuous Integration is to enable a consistent and repeatable environment to build, test, and generate deployable artifacts of your application with every code push. Before a pushing code, a developer should have a reasonable expectation that their build will pass; therefore creating a reliable CI environment that automates commands that developers can also run in their local machines is paramount.

Containerizing build environment

In order to ensure a consistent build environment across various OS platforms, developer machines, and Continuous Integration environments, you may containerize your build environment. Note that there are at least half-a-dozen common CI tools currently in use. Learning the ins and outs of each tool is almost an impossible task to achieve. Containerization of your build environment is an advanced concept that goes above and beyond of what is currently expected of CI tools. However, containerization is a great way to standardize...
