    About this ebook

    In Detail

    AngularJS, propelled by Google, is quickly becoming one of the most popular JavaScript MVC frameworks available, working to invert the development paradigm and bring data-driven modularity to the web frontend. Directives serve as the core building blocks in AngularJS and enable you to create reusable models that mold around your data structures and breathe new life into the intersection of HTML and JavaScript.

    AngularJS Directives serves as an in-depth study of some of the core features of AngularJS and provides you with all the knowledge you need to create fully dynamic web applications that respond in real-time to changes in data. You'll learn how to build directives from the ground up as well as some of the best practices for architecting them. By the end of this book, you'll be able to create a web application comprised of multiple modules all working together seamlessly to provide the best possible user experience.

    AngularJS Directives starts by investigating the best practices for single-page application development overall before diving into how AngularJS directives fulfill those goals. At each step, you'll learn both the how and why of what we're building, and by the end, you'll not only know the facts necessary to create a directive, but you'll also have the knowledge to decide how best to assemble it.

    You'll also learn why it's best to build applications with the data-model as your foundation, how to craft new dynamic modules that communicate with each other, how to build widgets that can be embedded in third-party websites, and even how to create custom inputs so your users can intuitively interact with your data. In AngularJS Directives, you'll learn all the necessary tools to begin architecting your own directives and how to use them in the construction of a more dynamic Web.

    Approach

    This book uses a practical, step-by-step approach, starting with how to build directives from the ground up before moving on to creating web applications comprised of multiple modules all working together to provide the best user experience possible.

    Who this book is for

    This book is intended for intermediate JavaScript developers who are looking to enhance their understanding of single-page web application development with a focus on AngularJS and the JavaScript MVC frameworks.

    It is expected that readers will understand basic JavaScript patterns and idioms and can recognize JSON formatted data.

      AngularJS is all about directives and this book is all about directives. The book talks about all aspects of a directive and tells us how to use them. Author uses simple language and the examples used make the concepts extremely easy to understand.Chapter 4 - Compile versus Link is the best chapter of the book and tells why AngularJS team decided to use this 'split' methodology before rendering the final contents. This chapter has a lot of information packed in just a few sentences, so take your time to read it. I myself read this chapter twice before moving on (and I'm sure to read it again soon).Chapter 7 - Transclusion is another great take away from this book. Alex clears all the mystery around this weird word in a very simple and effective verbiage. His analogy of 'translated-inclusion' to stand for transclusion fits aptly with the example provided in the chapter.The other chapters talk about how to use scope inside a directive, sharing directive data with controllers are quite an interesting read themselves. The chapters on writing unit and e2e tests are a win for developers as well.Now for the minuses. The 'Who this book is for' says 'no prior MVC or Angular.JS knowledge is required' - totally not right. I have been working on AngularJS for a few months now and I had to re-read a few paragraphs to understand the concepts. No, this book is definitely not for beginners. If you want to start with AngularJS , try the Mastering Web Application Development with AngularJS book by the same publisher ([...]In the epub version, the lack of code highlighting made it difficult to read through the lines. There are inline-comments that add to the challenge. This can also be improved.All-in-all, this is one heck of a book
