This is an assignment to gain exposure to Angular 2.

Angular is a complete framework for writing single page applications. When using Angular, you can use a few different languages that all get transpiled to es5 (for now). These include Javascript, Typescript and Dart. There is a focus on Typescript. For this assignment you will be using Typescript.

Learn more about Typescript here.

#Steps We will be stating from scratch on this assignment and pushing your finished code to you github account, and turning in a URL to the repo.

Your assignment is to work through the Angular tutorial.

You will need to turn in 7 commits. One for each chapter of the tutorial, including the quickstart guide.

Include a README file that includes the following (Add emojis. It makes things more fun! 😄 ):

• Name of project
• Build instructions
• What you learned
• What you found difficult
• Why are .gitignore files important

Also, as part of this assignment, you will need to include a .gitignore file to ignore files that shouldn't be tracked by git.

#Tips

• Typescript is a strongly typed language. Learn more about type systems here.
• Angular 2 is a complete rewrite from Angular 1. It is still in open beta, but it is poised to be a big deal in web development.
• Don't worry if you don't understand all the specifics with the details of the framework. Try and keep a broad view of how things connect. At the end of the day, in Angular we are still writing web components. Like what we did in Polymer or React.
• Research .gitignore files and why you should use them.
