Angular Training Course FAQs

Angular is an enterprise-strength tool for efficiently building browser and mobile-based user-interfaces.

Yes! While this course covers Angular 18, the material is still relevant for older versions. There are some areas where functionality has changed, and your instructor can identify these for you during the course. Angular best practice is to migrate to new features wherever possible.

Angular is a complete redesign of AngularJS. It builds on the lessons learned during the life of AngularJS. Specifically, Angular is component-oriented, while AngularJS is directive based. AngularJS was MVC-based, while Angular uses data-bound components. Angular is designed to support mobile devices AngularJS was not.
