hi all, so for my software construction class i have a leaned about angular apps. first i had to install the angular/cli with nodejs. then create a new project and learn about HTML, CSS since i had no experience with it. Angular is a web development platform that using typescript and HTML and CSS for client side wen applications .it was released in 2010 when it was know as angularJS. it was initially made for single-page applications.
angular has many good things about it such as very detailed documentation. its also supported by google meaning that its trustworthy and will be better supported for longer. it is also an amazing ecosystem for third part components. it also using a component based architecture making different components mesh together very well. it also using an ahead of time compiler which makes web pages load and run much faster in addition to be more secure. it also uses CLI which makes creating new projects much simpler and faster. angular elements also lets you add custom elements to app build with other things. another great feature is the ivy renderer. other good things are angular material, dependency injection and angular universal.
angular does however have some disadvantages. First of all it can be some what hard to learn at first. this is because it is fairly complex and it also require you to learn typescript and manage dependencies between components. it also has issues with SEO because of how it is done. lastly it has a lot of difficulties with backwards compatibility i found this out on my project since everything a lot of the stuff i was searching for gave me results for a different version of angular than i was using and it didn’t work for me.
overall though i think angular is a very useful tool.
