Overview of this book

A primary concern with modern day applications is that they need to be dynamic, and for that, data access from the server side, data authentication, and security are very important. Angular leverages its services to create such state-of-the-art dynamic applications. This book will help you create and design customized services, integrate them into your applications, import third-party plugins, and make your apps perform better and faster. This book starts with a basic rundown on how you can create your own Angular development environment compatible with v2 and v4. You will then use Bootstrap and Angular UI components to create pages. You will also understand how to use controllers to collect data and populate them into NG UIs. Later, you will then create a rating service to evaluate entries and assign a score to them. Next, you will create "cron jobs" in NG. We will then create a crawler service to find all relevant resources regarding a selected headline and generate reports on it. Finally, you will create a service to manage accuracy and provide feedback about troubled areas in the app created. This book is up to date for the 2.4 release and is compatible with the 4.0 release as well, and it does not have any code based on the beta or release candidates.

Introducing Angular

The previous JS frameworks we used had a fluid and easy workflow toward building web applications rapidly. However, as developers, what we are struggling with is technical debt.

In simple words, we could quickly build a web application with an impressive UI, but as the product kept growing and the change requests started kicking in, we had to deal with all maintenance nightmares that forced a long list of maintenance tasks and heavy costs to the business. Basically, the framework that used to be an amazing asset turned into a hairy liability (or technical debt if you like).

One of the major revamps in Angular is the removal of a lot of modules resulting in a lighter and faster core. For example, if you are coming from an Angular 1.x background and don't see $scope or $log in the new version, don't panic, they are still available to you via other means. There is no need to add overhead to the loading time if we are not going to use all the modules, so taking the modules out of the core results in a better performance.

So, to answer the question, one of the main issues Angular addresses is the performance issue. This is done through a lot of structural changes that we will get into over the course of the subsequent chapters.
