Angular for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications - Second Edition

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.

Reusable services leveraging OOP concepts

As mentioned, we have only worked with interfaces to represent data. We still want to continue using interfaces when passing data around various components and services. Interfaces are great for describing the kind of properties or functions an implementation has, but they suggest nothing about the behavior of these properties or functions.

With ES2015 (ES6), JavaScript gained native support for classes, which is a crucial concept of the OOP paradigm. Classes are actual implementations of behavior. As opposed to just having a collection of functions in a file, a class can properly encapsulate behavior. A class can then be instantiated as an object using the new keyword.

TypeScript takes the ES2015 (and beyond) implementation of classes and introduces necessary concepts like abstract classes, private, protected, and public properties, and interfaces to make it possible to implement OOP patterns.

OOP is an imperative programming...
