As part of my unplanned and unasked for blog series – Free JavaScript books, here is another. So introducing ‘Angular 5: From Theory To Practice: Build the web applications of tomorrow using the new Angular web framework from Google’ by Asim Hussain. It’s not exactly vanilla JavaScript as such – it’s Angular 5 and TypeScript but we’re all friends here so I’m lumping it in with the other free JavaScripts books I’ve written about.
And it’s a good one. Pitched at the right level, good quick start chapter so you can see how it all fits together early on and a nice primer on TypeScript in chapter 2. So, how much for hundreds of pages of Angular goodness delivered to a Kindle device? Well to you Madam/Sir, it is zero pounds, shillings and pence or nada dollars if you prefer. Oddly, if you are trying to get this on Australian Amazon then you are out of luck – clearly the bits and bytes can’t travel that far (though a VPN connection might help in that circumstance).
But Amazon Australia not withstanding, this book is worth the money. I’d even go further – this book would be worth the money if Mr Hussain ever decides to charge for it. Thank you Asim.
