Hello guys, if you are interested in learning the Angular framework, one of the most popular JavaScript frameworks for developing component-based Web GUI, and looking for some awesome resources like courses, tutorials, and books, then you have come to the right place.

In this article, I am going to share some of the best resources like books, tutorials, and courses to learn the Angular framework, formerly known as Angular JS, and now famous as simply Angular.

It’s backed by Google, hence you should not worry about it being outdated and losing relevance in a couple of years. Any investment you made in learning Angular will pay you rich dividends in the coming years.

As per StackOverflow’s Survey, Angular is the second most popular framework after jQuery and one of the main reasons behind JavaScript's popularity among web developers.
