  1. Not more and not less what you need to know about Angular
    Harness the TypeScript and off you go!A gentle and gradual introduction into the depths of Angular.Where it comes from and where it is headed. Certainly it is bound for further success.The author made all the right efforts to get a good grasps with the bolts and nuts of Angular.My favourites are on Pipes and Directives that enrich the Web Apps, Signals, data communications and Material – the buzzword of the modern Web.I am glad the Services are neatly explained – a very common occurrence to use those.An area to improve is how to do CI-CD, multi cloud development, use of AI.But it is a solid book in its 5th edition, and I deem more to come iterations.

  2. Thorough introduction to modern Angular
    This new edition is one of the most approachable overview books for Angular I have seen in the modern era. I think this would be a great book for people looking to get into Angular fresh, whether you come from other frameworks or are fresh with frontend with some basics or are getting back to Angular since many versions ago. The review of JS and then TS essentials was a good refresher and something I wish I went over when I started. The follow along project felt realistic and was nice to iterate new ideas upon. And the pacing didn’t feel too fast or too slow. My one criticism is that some state assignments done in ngOnInit blocks could be lifted out directly to component variable declarations, but anyone starting from this book would already be ahead of the curve.

  3. Walk to run with Angular easily
    Aristeidis has done a great job of taking someone from little to no knowledge Angular to being able to understand how to build a great project from start to finish. Even having worked in Angular for several years I found a few pieces in the first couple of chapters that I had not seen before that I look forward to bringing into my own projects. You could be a first day developer and being able to work through this book and be able to understand the concepts being presented fairly easily, in my opinion, and should be a great place to start with Angular for anyone just getting going. Clear, concise, and helpful the whole way through.

  4. Must Have
    The book provides a clear and concise explanation of key concepts, making it easy to follow along. Highly recommended!

  5. Comprehensive Introduction to Angular
    The Learning Angular provides a comprehensive introduction to Angular for both new and experienced developers. It begins with a foundational overview of Angular, covering its key features, such as its modular architecture, dependency injection, and CLI tools. The structured approach makes it easy to follow along, especially with chapters dedicated to TypeScript, a prerequisite for Angular development.Highlights include:- Clear explanations of Angular’s core concepts like components, directives, and services.- Practical guides for setting up the development environment using the Angular CLI.- Hands-on exercises in building, styling, and testing components.- Introduction to modern Angular features, including reactive programming and change detection strategies.The book’s modular structure allows readers to learn progressively, with each chapter building on the previous one. It promises to help developers manage complex tasks, optimize performance, and create scalable applications.Overall, this resource is well-suited for developers aiming to master Angular’s latest features. Its clear writing style, practical examples, and up-to-date content make it a valuable learning companion.

  6. Parto da una considerazione: se un libro è arrivato alla quinta edizione, evidentemente il pubblico lo ha ritenuto di qualità.E io sono assolutamente di questo parere: il libro è sicuramente uno dei migliori se si vuole imparare bene Angular in ogni suo aspetto.Ciò è dovuto a diversi fattori:⏺ Aristeidis è un Angular Google Developer Expert, quindi sa bene di cosa parla, ma soprattutto lo fa in maniera chiara: il libro è strutturato come una guida passo-passo dove si parte dalle basi e, capitolo dopo capitolo, si affrontano argomenti di difficoltà crescente, accompagnando l’aspetto teorico all’implementazione concreta con lo sviluppo di una web app (quindi è bene studiare il libro con accanto il proprio ambiente di sviluppo pronto :);⏺ Il libro è aggiornato ad Angular 19, quindi oltre a trattare tutti gli argomenti necessari per sviluppare in Angular, ci sono anche le novità del linguaggio come ad esempio i Signals e il Server-Side Rendering;⏺ E’ adatto sia ai completi neofiti, sia a chi passa ad Angular da altri framework. E’ necessario possedere già delle basi di programmazione web (HTML, CSS, Javascript, che non vengono trattate nel libro), mentre un capitolo iniziale su Typescript torna particolarmente utile, sia a chi non lo conosce per nulla, sia a chi ha bisogno di dare una rinfrescata alle proprie conoscenze.In conclusione, questo è un libro veramente efficace se si vuole imparare Angular, poichè vengono trattati tutti gli argomenti, dalle basi a quelli più avanzati, con il giusto equilibrio tra teoria e pratica.E grazie agli esempi concreti e al progetto di studio che viene sviluppato nel corso del libro, si ha l’opportunità di mettere subito le mani in pasta!Se vuoi diventare uno sviluppatore frontend, questo è sicuramente il libro giusto! ☑

  7. The book really delivers. It starts from the basics and takes you through everything you need – from setting up your first app to testing and making it perform better. What I love is that it’s useful whether you’re just starting with Angular or already working with it. Really happy to see the author has kept the same quality after all these years.

  8. One of the best books for learning Angular!This is the fifth edition, but every release is always excellent; the author updates the book every time to keep it updated with the angular release! Awesome!The book is easy to follow and provides the best ways to use Angular!
