Overview of this book

Packed with practical advice and detailed recipes, this updated second edition of Angular Projects will teach you everything you need to know to build efficient and optimized web applications using Angular. Among the things you’ll learn in this book are the essential features of the framework, which you’ll master by creating ten different real-world web applications. Each application will demonstrate how to integrate Angular with a different library and tool. As you advance, you’ll familiarize yourself with implementing popular technologies, such as Angular Router, Scully, Electron, Angular service worker, Nx monorepo tools, NgRx, and more while building an issue tracking system. You’ll also work on a PWA weather application, a mobile photo geotagging application, a component UI library, and many other exciting projects. In the later chapters, you’ll get to grips with customizing Angular CLI commands using schematics. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to be able to build Angular apps using a variety of different technologies according to your or your client’s needs.

Summary

In this project, we built a component UI library that we can use in our Angular applications. Initially, we learned how to use the Angular CLI to create an Angular library. We scaffolded a new Angular CLI workspace that contained our Angular library, along with an Angular application for testing it.

We then used the Angular CDK with the Bulma CSS framework to build the UI components of our library. We created a card list that can be re-ordered using drag-and-drop features and a button for copying content to the clipboard.

We also saw how to publish our library in the npm registry to use it in other Angular projects. Finally, we converted it into custom elements using Angular elements for distribution to non-Angular applications.

In the next project, which will be the final project in the book, we will learn how to customize the Angular CLI to create our generation schematics.
