All things Angular 2.0

A talk by Yuri Takhteyev, CTO at Rangle.io

Yuri talks to the #AngularJSTO meetup group about what we can expect from Angular 2.0 and how to better prepare for the transition.

  • How Angular 2 takes advantage of new JavaScript features available in ES6.
  • The current state of Angular 2 and when we expect it to be ready for real-world use.
  • How to write your Angular 1 code today so that it would be easy to convert it to Angular 2 later.
