In this Learning Path, you'll learn Angular and to deliver high-quality and production-grade Angular apps from design to deployment.</p> <p>You will begin by creating a simple fitness app, using the building blocks of Angular, and make your final app, Personal Trainer, by morphing the workout app into a full-fledged personal workout builder and runner with an advanced directive building - the most fundamental and powerful feature of Angular.</p> <p>You will learn the different ways of architecting Angular applications using RxJS, and some of the patterns that are involved in it. Later you’ll be introduced to the router-first architecture, a seven-step approach to designing and developing mid-to-large line-of-business apps, along with popular recipes.

Personal Trainer navigation with routes


The navigation pattern that we plan to use for the app is the list-detail pattern. We will create list pages for the exercises and workouts available in the app. Clicking on any list item takes us to the detailed view for the item where we can perform all CRUD operations (create/read/update/delete). The following routes adhere to this pattern:

Route

Description

/builder

This just redirects to builder/workouts

/builder/workouts

This lists all the available workouts. It is the landing page for Workout Builder

/builder/workout/new

This creates a new workout

This edits an existing workout with the specific ID

/builder/exercises

This lists all the available exercises

/builder/exercise/new

This creates a new exercise

/builder/exercise/:id

This edits an existing exercise with the specific ID
