Angular Deep Dive - Beginner to Advanced (Angular 20)

This course will give you a solid foundation on the Angular platform by giving you with an in-depth guide tour of all the advanced features available in the Angular Core and Common modules.

These are the baseline modules from which all other modules in the Angular ecosystem are built with, so this is the part of Angular that you want to learn first, and in as much detail as possible.

Angular has evolved a lot during the years, and since the introduction of Signals there is sometimes more than one way of doing things. In this course we will course each feature both ways where applicable, both with Signals and with decorators.

In this course, you will get an exhaustive guided tour of all the basic and also the advanced functionality available in these two Angular essential modules (including Angular Elements).

This guide will cover everything from the most commonly used features of Angular, up until the most advanced topics of Angular Core, such as the multiple modes of change detection, style isolation, dependency injection, content projection, internationalization, standalone components and more.

The course starts from the beginning, assuming no prior knowledge of Angular. Each concept is introduced based only on previous concepts, so there are no forward references to help with the learning process.

Even though the course starts with the essential concepts of Angular, it will quickly evolve into intermediate to advanced topics. So no matter what your current Angular level is, there is something for everyone in this course!   

To help you make the most out of the standalone components feature, you have available a full section on how to migrate an existing application to standalone components, and completely remove NgModules from your application.

Course Overview

This course will start with a quick and practical introduction to the Angular framework. You are going to set up your development environment, and using the Angular CLI you will quickly scaffold a small Angular project from scratch.

Using this initial playground, we are then going to answer some of the most common Angular questions: Why Angular, what are its main advantages and key features? We will answer this by demonstrating how the change detection mechanism works, and introduce some of the Angular template syntax.

We will then cover one by one all the features of the Angular Core and Common modules, which include:

• Custom components with @Component

• Components @Input and @Output, event Emitters

• Control flow syntax: @if, @for, @switch

• ngFor

• ngIf

• ngClass
