It’s probably not gonna happen but I might have a job opportunity but it hinges on me learning and knowing Angular. Does anyone have any suggestions on tutorials and/or is the Tutorial on the official site good enough?
I have a background in Vanilla JS, some ReactJS, TypeScript(need to work on it), AstroJS Java, and some Kotlin. All of that is self-taught. But I also have C# and ASP.net experience from college. Just to put it in perspecitve on where I am at. Also I probably use ChatGPT as a crutch too much but that is because I don’t have anyone to really ask for help when I get stuck.
I have a deep hatred of JavaScript and only use shitty Python libraries for my job instead.
My field is more in geospatial data/drafting automation and I spend most of my day re-writing the dogshit legacy code that I have to interface with so I’m not constantly pulling my hair out lol.
Which, to be fair, will also likely be 90% of your job working with Angular as well. If you read other people’s solutions though, you’ll at least be aware of what it is you need to learn and what it is that people hate and you can ignore (or work around).
I’d also take any existing projects you have and try to translate them to Angular. I do that all the time when I write a new library or extendinh a library I’ve written to test that functionality matches and compare performance/syntax.
I do sometimes have to use a JS library for my job, but it’s a super specialized library (ArcGIS Arcade) that is essentially useless and dogshit slow, but is required for specific actions. I also try to factor out as much of that as possible and rely as heavily as possible on the lowest level API granted to us which is Cursors.
