With Angular (2+), you can already build highly reactive and engaging web apps.
Wouldn't it be amazing to use that same tech stack and knowledge to build real native mobile apps for iOS and Android?

Wouldn't it be amazing to use that same tech stack and knowledge to build real native mobile apps for iOS and Android?
NativeScript enables you to do exactly that.
You build a normal Angular app and manage your entire app logic via Angular + TypeScript. Combine that with NativeScript's TypeScript/ Angular modules and the strong NativeScript build system to generate Android and iOS apps which you can (and will in this course) deploy to the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
But even better than that: You're also able to use that same "Native App with Angular" codebase to build a regular web app out of it as well.
1 codebase, 3 kinds of apps. Pretty sweet.
In this course, you learn:
What exactly NativeScript is and how it works
Which core building block a NativeScript app has
How to build nice user interfaces with NativeScript layouts and UI widgets
How to add mobile navigation (forward-backward, tabs, side drawer) in a NativeScript app
How to style your app with CSS (yes, the mobile app, too. )
How to fetch user input
How to handle state and data in the app (incl. storage on the device)
How to send data to a server and fetch it from there
How to implement authentication
AND: How to do all that in a way that works in both native mobile apps as well as a web app - with one and the same codebase
To succeed in this course, Angular knowledge is a must-have. You need to know how Angular works, how you build and use components, what dependency injection is and how it works and how the general Angular architecture (with NgModule etc) works.
A brief refresher on some Angular core concepts is provided but if you got zero Angular knowledge, you'll very likely not be able to follow along.
You absolutely DON'T have to be an expert though.
I'd love to welcome you in the course. :-)
What's in the course, what can you expect? Let me welcome you to the course!
The most important question is: What is NativeScript, what can you do with it, why would you use it? In this lecture, we'll explore what NativeScript is all about.
Learning alone is absolutely fine but finding learning partners might be a nice thing, too. Our learning community is a great place to learn and grow together - of course it's 100% free and optional!
Let's take a closer look under the hood of NativeScript to fully understand what it's about and how it works behind the scenes.
To get the most out of the course, there are some pre-requisites. In this lecture, we'll explore what you need to know in advance.
Enough of the NativeScript theory, let's build our first little NativeScript app! Let's see how easy it is to build a native mobile app with Angular and NativeScript.
What's in this course, what will you learn? In this lecture, you'll get a thorough overview of the course content and the order in which it will be presented.
Knowing the course content is one thing, but to me it's super-important to ensure that you get the most out of the course. Hence in this lecture, I'll share some tips & tricks regarding how to take this course.
Stuck? You're getting an error in your code and you don't know why? No problem! I attached code snapshots of my code to a lot of lectures in this course!
