If your team is interested in a hands-on, in-depth exploration of how to develop web applications with Angular 2, I can run a three day workshop in your organization. Participants will gain practical, skills while exploring the best practices and principles of developing Angular 2 applications and get familiar with multiple sample applications illustrating solutions for real-world challenges.

By the end of this live, hands-on course, participants will understand:

• How to jump-start a new Angular project
• How to arrange the client-side navigation in single-page applications
• How to communicate with servers using HTTP and WebSocket protocols

And they’ll be able to:

• Write code in TypeScript with the Angular 2 framework and deploy it in any modern web browser
• Unit test the router, services, and components
• Automate the building and deployment processes using the Webpack bundler and npm scripts

What former clients say about Yakov’s Angular 2 workshops:

“The workshop is exactly what I have envisioned. The contents cover all of the critical and important aspects of the platform. It is also very hands-on. You made the training fun and engaging. The pace is also just right for impatient developers like us.”
– Emily Jeng, Princeton University

“I’ve attended several of your courses already. I think the plan and coverage are really comprehensive. I liked how we were going from a starter to the complete solution during the course and didn’t forget to talk about pros and cons and alternatives (several ways to build a form, SystemJS versus Webpack, etc.).”
— Dmitry N.

“Great class. Very thorough and great, detailed examples.”
— Coral S.

Prerequisites

Attendees must have basic knowledge of JavaScript and HTML. If you never worked with JavaScript before, please watch this video from one of the previous Yakov’s trainings. No knowledge of AngularJS 1.x is required.
