Angular 6 for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications

By: Doguhan Uluca

Overview of this book

Angular 6 for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications follows a hands-on and minimalist approach demonstrating how to design and architect high quality apps. The first part of the book is about mastering the Angular platform using foundational technologies. You will use the Kanban method to focus on value delivery, communicate design ideas with mock-up tools and build great looking apps with Angular Material. You will become comfortable using CLI tools, understand reactive programming with RxJS, and deploy to the cloud using Docker. The second part of the book will introduce you to the router-first architecture, a seven-step approach to designing and developing mid-to-large line-of-business applications, along with popular recipes. You will learn how to design a solid authentication and authorization experience; explore unit testing, early integration with backend APIs using Swagger and continuous integration using CircleCI. In the concluding chapters, you will provision a highly available cloud infrastructure on AWS and then use Google Analytics to capture user behavior. 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.

Angular Augury

Augury is a Chrome Dev Tools extension for debugging and profiling Angular applications. It is a purpose-built tool to help developers visually navigate the component tree, inspect the state of the router, and enable break point debugging by source-mapping between the generated JavaScript code and the TypeScript code that the developer coded in. You can download Augury from augury.angular.io. Once installed, when you open Chrome Dev Tools for your Angular app, you'll note a new tab for Augury, as illustrated:

Chrome Dev Tools Augury

Augury provides useful and critical information in understanding how your Angular app is behaving at runtime:

  1. Current Angular version is listed, in this case, as version 5.1.2
  2. Component Tree
  3. Router Tree shows all the routes that have been configured in the app
  4. NgModules shows the AppModule and Sub-Modules of the app
