In this course we teach you how to design, develop, ane deploy enterprise level Angular Applications the right way. Despite the fact that Angular is an opinionated framework, specially suited to build large solutions, it requires a deep knowledge to take decisions at every step.

In almost 30 lessons we cover how to choose and use the correct tools, how to structure an application that scales and how to code some intricate solutions to common problems. It's a long course/book and comes with a complete working codebase fully tested.

It is taught by Alberto Basalo who has been working, advising, and training multinational corporations, banks, and public administrations in Angular for years.

In Angular, we enjoyed the use of services to access APIs. This is a good practice, but it can be improved. In this lesson, we will see how to make API access a commodity.

The Angular framework provides a service called 

 that we can use to access APIs. This service is a wrapper around the 

 object that is available in the browser. It provides a set of methods that we can use to access APIs.
