Getting Started with Angular is an online course brought to you by Packt Publishing. The course aims to introduce the beginners to the Angular framework by taking them step-by-step through the process of creating an application. The course is created for anyone who wants to learn Angular without any prior experience of the framework. The course starts by introducing Angular as a framework for building web applications. Then it moves on to the installation and basic setup of Angular. The course focuses on teaching by example using sample projects, guiding the students on how to build interactive and responsive application interfaces.

The course is divided into 10 sections, each of them covering different aspects of Angular. The first section serves as an introduction to Angular, which covers the basics of the framework, where one can learn what Angular does, its evolution, and the advantages it offers.

The next three sections breaks down the framework’s fundamental concepts, starting with Angular Components. Here, the course teaches what components are, how to create them, and how to structure an Angular app with them.

In the second section, the course dives deep into Angular Modules, discussing the purpose of modules, what they are, and how to create them. The course emphasizes the benefits of using modules in structuring Angular apps.

The third section of the course focuses on Services in Angular. Here, learners will get introduced to what services are, demonstrate the role they play in Angular applications, and how to use them for data management within the application.

Section four of the course provides an overview of the importance of Angular's built-in Directives. The course discusses the function of Directives and how they can be used in Angular applications.

In the fifth section, the course teaches learners how to work with one of the powerful features of Angular — Reactive Forms. The course covers an overview of Reactive Forms, data binding, form controls and Validation, powerful tools to build interactive, responsive, and reactive user interfaces.

Section six will explore Angular Routing, which enables Angular apps to have a page or view-oriented architecture. Learners will get introduced to the concept of routing and how incorporating it into an Angular app can offer benefits to its functionality.

In section seven, the course covers how to integrate third-party libraries into an Angular project using Angular's built-in mechanisms.

Section 8 focuses on the importance of testing in Angular. The course will introduce how testing is performed in Angular, as well as how to make a test runner out of an Angular app.

In section nine, learners will learn how to deploy an Angular app. The course provides a step by step approach to deploying an Angular app locally, as well as deploying to a cloud-based platform like Heroku.

Finally, the course highlights the importance of Angular's command-line interface (CLI) and its use in the development and management of Angular applications.

Throughout the program, learners will work with tests, real-world projects, and code examples to help reinforce what they learn in each section, enabling them to put it into practice.

In conclusion, Getting Started with Angular is an ideal course for new developers and designers looking to learn and master Angular. The course provides instructions on how to create an Angular application from scratch, from basic concepts to routing to deployment, and offers hands-on coding exercises to test your comprehension. The course also provides learners with an excellent overview of the Angular framework and the benefits it provides.
