World of Angular JS

Let’s know about Angular:

Currently, the most widely used Front-End technology is “Angular JS”. It is the Javascript framework which allows us to play with logic at the Client Side. It is developed by Google. When angular was developed the team’s objective is to provide more flexibility to the web designers because it reduces the block of code & complexity. Hence development becomes easier.


Why Angular?

Before discussing why to use Angular let’s have look on the survey of 2017 by Stack overflow, which will be compelled us to think twice what’s the reason behind the popularity of Angular JS.

From the last five years, JavaScript was the most commonly used programming language.

Now let’s see which framework of Javascript is most popular

If we have a look at above chart we’ll find AngularJS is the top most widely used framework. Above two figures are enough to show why to use angular.

We are living in the changing environment. The Angular team is ready to take challenges of current technologies. In order to provide more flexibility Angular 2 then Angular 4 came into existence.

If we compare AngularJS 1x with Angular2 is like we are comparing Apple 🍎 and orange 🍊 😄 Because Angular2 having the different structure from AngularJS, But Angular2 and Angular4 are almost same 👍.


Features of Angular 2/4 :

Components Over Controllers

TypeScript

Universal Server Side Rendering (SSR)

Improved Data Binding

Mobile Toolkit

Structural Directives

Command Line Interface(CLI)


Conclusion :

It’s time to take advantage of latest technology and take step towards Angular2/4. It will be a little bit tough for Angular 1x developer to move towards Angular2/4 but if you are a beginner then you can start Angular2/4 directly. We can use MEAN (Mongo, Express, Angular, Node) to develop our application to get higher performance with more optimized code structure.

Angular CLI makes it easier to use. You need to type a single command and you can start building your Angular application 😊
