Angular JS Directives: A Deep Dive

About this Presentation

Angular is the most popular client-side JavaScript framework today. This may be because of the slick two-way bindings or because Google owns the trends site. Either way, I plan to skim over the easy parts of Angular so that we can dig into building complex directives.

Directives are arguably the most complex part of the Angular framework. I will begin with simple directives and graduate to more and more complex examples. Despite my best efforts to make the content as simple as possible, in the end everyone but the most accomplished Angular developers will be lost and confused.

The easier directive examples will give novice and intermediate Angular developers a good understanding of how directives work, how they should be used, and how they can make development more efficient. The more complex directive examples will give developers an idea of the complexity which may help in project sizing and estimation exercises. Expert Angular developers will gain some good examples of how complex tasks can be approached.

Participants should come away with a thorough understanding of Angular Directives.
