By: Doguhan Uluca

Overview of this book

This second edition of Angular for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications is updated with in-depth coverage of the evergreen Angular platform. You’ll start by mastering Angular programming fundamentals. Using the Kanban method and GitHub tools, you’ll build great-looking apps with Angular Material and also leverage reactive programming patterns with RxJS, discover the flux pattern with NgRx, become familiar with automated testing, utilize continuous integration using CircleCI, and deploy your app to the cloud using Vercel Now and GCloud. You will then learn how to design and develop line-of-business apps using router-first architecture with observable data anchors, demonstrated through oft-used recipes like master/detail views, and data tables with pagination and forms. Next, you’ll discover robust authentication and authorization design demonstrated via integration with Firebase, API documentation using Swagger, and API implementation using the MEAN stack. Finally, you will learn about DevOps using Docker, build a highly available cloud infrastructure on AWS, capture user behavior with Google Analytics, and perform load testing. By the end of the book, you’ll be familiar with the entire gamut of modern web development and full-stack architecture, learning patterns and practices to be successful as an individual developer on the web or as a team in the enterprise.

Continuous deployment

CD is the idea that code changes that successfully pass through your pipeline can be automatically deployed to a target environment. Although there are examples of continuously deploying to production, most enterprises prefer to target a dev environment. A gated approach is adopted to move the changes through the various stages of dev, test, staging, and finally production. CircleCI can facilitate gated deployment with approval workflows, which is covered later in this section.

In CircleCI, to deploy your image, we need to implement a deploy job. In this job, you can deploy to a multitude of targets such as Google Cloud Run, Docker Hub, Heroku, Azure, or AWS ECS. Integration with these targets will involve multiple steps. At a high level, these steps are as follows:

  1. Configure an orb for your target environment, which provides the CLI tools required to deploy your software.
  2. Store login credentials or access keys specific to the target...
