A while back, I needed a simple way to create a table with parent/child details in Angular. ng-repeat has some handy little known features to make creating this type of table easy.

Grouping data with Angular

Earlier today a colleague asked me how one would go about grouping data within an ng-repeat. I had never actually had to do this before, which made it an interesting problem to solve.
Angular2 Basic Routing Demo updated to Final
posted on September 17, 2016 by long2know in angular
Unless you don’t keep up with Angular development at all, you heard that Angular2 final was released last week. Yesterday, I had an opportunity to update my simple Visual Studio 2015 Basic Routing demo from RC4 to Final. There were breaking changes that had to be resolved.
Angular2 basic routing

In continuing to build upon my previous project to get Angular2 working with Visual Studio 2015, I’ve been playing with routing and components.
While routing and components are very different when compared to Angular v1, it’s still pretty straight forward to get a basic application up and running.
Creating an Angular2 app with VS2015
posted on July 6, 2016 by long2know in angular, ASP.NET, Core
Last night, I was playing with the latest .NET Core tooling in Visual Studio 2015 and decided to create an Anuglar2 application. It is not a straight-forward process. Additionally, most tutorials that you will see floating around don’t deal with Angular2 RC4 (v.Latest). And the few that do either aren’t Visual Studio 2015 specific or aren’t targeting ES5 as required by IE11 or older.
Angular links of interest

I’ve been reading up on Angular2, Redux, React and other various libraries and frameworks over the weekend.
I’m in the process of understanding what using Redux w/ an Angular2 app provides that using a singleton service doesn’t. But, it seems to be more about preference (imho) than real-world benefit. It may help tie into observable / push notifications to make state change detection between immutable / mutable objects more performant. However, I can see a benefit if one wants to swap out frameworks and allow their previous state management work across frameworks. It’s an interesting prospect from that perspective.
AngularJS reusable table directive updated
posted on June 30, 2016 by long2know in angular
Since writing my previous blog post on an Angular reusable table directive, this directive has been updated quite a bit.
The github source and demos reflect the latest code, but I want to detail some of the major changes.
Angular ui-router nuance

Yesterday, I was fixing up a web view/page that contained nested Angular ui-router states to achieve parent/child detail. Interestingly, I discovered I was doing things the hard way.
Detecting every time NgRepeat is Redrawn
posted on April 21, 2016 by long2know in angular, JavaScript
Quite a while back, I wrote a blog post that detailed how it’s possible to use a directive to determine when an Angular repeater is finished. My solution, like nearly every other solution I looked at has one major flaw. It’s only triggered on first render.
Angular project structure and conventions redeux

Last year, I provided a brief synopsis of a project structure and conventions that i use with Angular.
Over the course of a year though, this structure has evolved.
