Angular-CLI, RxJS Observables and Rapid Prototyping
Welcome to the modern web online conference! You can enjoy modern web conference monthly in person in the Bay Area as well as online.
This month, we'll be featuring Mike Brocchi, contributor to Angular-CLI, Ben Lesh on RxJS Observables and Jade Applegate on Rapid Prototyping for a better UX.
Topic 1: Angular-CLI
Angular 2's largest barrier to entry is setting up the build process and app structure consistency. Angular-CLI is a project that aims to alleviate those issues. Let's get back to the idea that Angular developers can focus on writing Angular applications. Get everything out of the way and focus on providing great experiences to users.
