It’s not every day that one of the most important front-end libraries in web development gets a complete overhaul. Keep your skills relevant and up-to-date with this comprehensive introduction to Google’s popular community project.

This Learning Path covers the fundamentals of Angular 2 including how to migrate to Angular 2 and Angular 2 directives and components. We will also look at how TypeScript complements Angular 2 and build a mobile app using Ionic 2 and Angular 2.

Harness the power of Angular 2 for TypeScript and Ionic 2 by leveraging this Learning Path.

Introducing Ionic 2

If you've built an application with Angular 1.x and need direction on how to efficiently migrate that application across to Angular 2, then this Learning Path is for you. If you've spent time with TypeScript and know how things work on a basic level, this Learning Path will allow you to graduate to a level of mastery. Anyone looking to get started with app development can also use the introduction to Ionic 2 section to get their feet wet with hybrid app development.
