We started this book with a discussion on Angular, building a hello world application, and the core architecture of Angular. Then, we dived into the building blocks of Angular. Next, we discussed the basics of TypeScript and how to use TypeScript in writing Angular applications. Later, we walked through creating an Angular single-page application in Visual Studio and learned about RESTful services and creating a RESTful service using Web API for Angular applications. After that, we did a complete step-by-step walk-through on creating an application using Angular, ASP.NET MVC, and Web API in Visual Studio. Finally, we learned about testing Angular applications using Karma and Jasmine.
