Overview of this book

Angular Projects isn't like other books on Angular – this is a project-based guide that helps budding Angular developers get hands-on experience while developing cutting-edge applications. In this updated third edition, you’ll master the essential features of the framework by creating ten different real-world web applications. Each application will demonstrate how to integrate Angular with a different library and tool, giving you a 360-degree view of what the Angular ecosystem makes possible. Updated to the newest version of Angular, the book has been revamped to keep up with the latest technologies. You’ll work on a PWA weather application, a mobile photo geotagging application, a component UI library, and other exciting projects. In doing so, you’ll implement popular technologies such as Angular Router, Scully, Electron, Angular service workers, Jamstack, NgRx, and more. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to build Angular apps using a variety of different technologies according to your or your client’s needs.

Summary

In this chapter, we built a PWA application that displays weather information for a given city.Initially, we set up the OpenWeather API to get weather data and created an Angular application from scratch to integrate it. We learned how to use the built-in HTTP client of the Angular framework to communicate with the OpenWeather API. We also installed the Angular Material library and used some ready-made UI components for our application.After creating the Angular application, we introduced the Angular service worker and enabled it to work offline. We learned how to interact with the service worker and provide notifications for updates in our application. Finally, we deployed a production version of our application into the Firebase hosting and installed it locally on our device.In the next chapter, we will learn how to create an Angular desktop application with Electron, the big rival of PWA applications.
