AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

One of the hardest things about writing non-trivial applications is managing state. In our attempt to effectively manage state, we introduce additional complexity by trying to control application flow and the amount of code volume that comes from all of this. Redux gives us the ability to address state management and communication in astonishingly simple semantics that can be explained in just a couple minutes. The beauty of Redux is that it is not only a library but a pattern that works very will within Angular 1.x applications. In this series, we are going to learn how to integrate redux (the pattern) into Eggly from scratch and then introduce **ng-redux** and add in **Redux DevTools** at the end for fun.

Build Angular 1.x Apps with Redux

Implementing modern component-based architecture in your new or existing Angular 1.x web application is a breath of fresh air.

In this course, you are going to take a close look at Eggly, an Angular 1.x application for organizing bookmarks, and build it using modern patterns and practices, inspired by Angular 2's recommended architecture.

You will learn how to leverage ES6 in your Angular 1 applications through Babel, and fully understand the core patterns that are used in a composed modular web application. 

This course will teach you how to leverage your existing knowledge of Angular, while preparing your mind (and applications!) for the future.

If you are interested, there is a [companion guide](http://www.angular2patterns.com/) that digs deeper into the patterns found in this course and Angular 2.

Using Angular 2 Patterns in Angular 1.x Apps

How much work would it take for you to move all of your directives and their templates to several different new directories? You'd have to update the templateUrl, script tags, etc., etc. With webpack, this can be trivial. For example, you don't need to worry about loading your templates in the $templateCache ever again. Webpack will help you modularize your css and tests. All of these things and more in this series so you can start using webpack with Angular today.

AngularJS and Webpack for Modular Applications

Angular Material is an Angular-native, UI component framework from Google. It is a reference implementation of Google's Material Design and provides >30 UI components and services essential for mobile and desktop AngularJS applications.

In this course, we will quickly build a real-work application Angular UI application, take a tour of Angular Material, and learn how ngMaterial can be used in your projects.

Introduction to AngularJS Material

angular-formly provides a very simple API to dynamically change properties of your field (like disabled, hidden, and required) using the powerful expressionProperties property on your field.

angular-formly: expressionProperties

angular-formly allows you to default the values of fields for your angular forms using the `defaultValue` property. To default the value of a field, you can either initialize the `model` with the default value, or use this `defaultValue` property on the field configuration.

angular-formly: Default Values

AngularJS validation can be tough, but angular-formly makes it extremely simple with a single validation API that enables basic and advanced field validation. You can specify a string expression, function that returns true/false, or a function that returns a promise which is resolved/rejected.

angular-formly: Custom Validation

The Angular Material Layout API wraps the flexbox CSS features with an amazingly easy, powerful HTML markup API. The Layout API hides the complexities of the CSS, is intuitive to use, and eliminates the need for developers to become flexbox experts to implement modern page layouts. 

In this lesson we will learn how to use the Angular Material Container components and the Layout API to implement the layouts specified in design wireframe.

Angular Material: Containers with the Layout API

Themes convey meaning through color, tones, and contrasts. And the theme color palettes, alphas, and shadows deliver a consistent tone to your application and a unified feel for all Angular Material UI components. Theming allows developers to change the intention and meaning of the application by changing the colors and shadows. 

Accessibility is a huge - often overlooked - feature in modern web applications. Angular Material components all implement ARIA features whenever possible. And for usage scenarios where the ARIA attributes are not explicitly provided and cannot be inferred, then Angular Material will provide details console warnings alerting the developer.

Let’s use the Angular Material Theming service to change the background, primary, accent, and warning colors used within the entire application. These will be configured at startup using the $mdThemeProvider.  

Let’s also resolve the two ARIA warnings shown in console. These originate from icon buttons where the ARIA label cannot be inferred. So let’s add a static aria-label and a dynamic, interpolated aria-label to those buttons.

Angular Material: Theming and ARIA

In Angular, we want to keep our controllers lightweight and specific to the view that it is controlling. To accomplish this, we are going to refactor our categories collection into a CategoriesModel. A recurring theme in Angular 2 is that everything is "just a class". When we create our controllers and services in an Angular 2 style, they are also "just a class". We will see this in action as we convert our controller almost verbatim into a service.

Refactor Angular Controller Logic to Services

Directives might just be the **killer** feature of AngularJS. Directives allow us to extend the grammar of the web through reusable HTML elements, attributes, and classes.

First Directive

Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.

Expanding on [Part 1](https://egghead.io/lessons/angularjs-rails-todo-api-part-1), this lesson will look at how to bootstrap AngularJS in a rails application as part of the asset pipeline. With Angular available, you'll see how to communicate with the Rails API using $resource.

Rails Todo API Part 2

The ui-router library for AngularJS provides several options for navigating between states in your application. You can navigate via the browser's URL bar, programatically with `$state.go`, and with the ui-sref directive on your HTML elements.

ui-router: Activating States

The first step to **any** AngularJS project, is actually adding AngularJS to the page. This lesson will show you adding the Angular script, initializing the app with ng-app, and simple two way binding with ng-model. This is a *beginner* level lesson.

First Step: Adding Angular to the HTML Page

Use AngularJS $rootScope within a directive to detect route change errors and display it to the user.

Directive for Route Handling

Up to this point, we have created an effective, yet rudimentary, implementation of Redux by manually creating an application store, reducers and action creators. We have already made significant progress in simplifying state management within our application, but we have in fact only touched the surface of what Redux has to offer.

In this lesson, we are going to introduce ngRedux into our application and let it handle the rest of the heavy lifting as we work through this series. ngRedux is a project that provides angular bindings to redux to streamline integrating it into our application.

In this introductory lesson, we will discuss how the architectural concepts of Angular 2 can be applied to AngularJS 1.x. We will also take a brief tour of the concepts that we will be covering in this series as well as how the code is structured per lesson.

Introducing Angular 2 Concepts in Angular 1

`$apply` and `$digest` are both methods on AngularJS scopes that allow you to manually trigger the updates to bound properties on your scopes.

$apply vs $digest

Binding is a core feature of AngularJS. It provides a simple mechanism for integrating your HTML with your data via {{bracketed expressions}}. In this video, John covers the basics of binding to get you started.

The AngularJS $exceptionHandler service allows you to catch and handle unanticipated JavaScript errors in a meaningful way.
