I was recently at an AngularJS meetup at Google. One exciting (and drool-worthy) advancement the devs are making when it comes to Angular's documentation: a fully interactive Codecademy-style 5-step tutorial. You can see a rough demo here: http://198.199.117.192/. They said they'd finish it in the coming weeks.

#22I take it he's using Jetbrains Webstorm for his IDE? It looks pretty nice.

Fantastic! I did hear there were some big documentation updates coming, hopefully this is the first of many. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, he is an evangelist for WebStorm and is involved in the new Android IDE.

#25Two things I love about these videos:
1) They're far simpler and easier to follow than anything I've found in the official Angular docs 2) He includes a brief section on testing. I'm a self-taught developer and work exclusively on my own projects. And I rely pretty heavily on tutorials. It's so rare to find a tutorial that spends any time at all on testing.
Re: AngularJS Screencasts
#26FYI - the source code isn't published with the videos, but @mattfriz created a github repo with all of the code used in each tutorial: https://github.com/msfrisbie/egghead-angularjs
thank you! i was looking everywhere for this!

#27I also found https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5839553 to be super useful for actually getting started with AngularJS with no experience. Then moving onto egghead.io tutorials.
In addition to the first three tutorials I just put out another cast on tuesday, here's the full updated list:
* Part 1: Intro to Angular JS (50 minutes) [1]
* Part 2: End to End with Angular JS (52 minutes) [2]
* Part 3: Security with Angular JS (30 minutes) [3]
* Part 4: Frontend Workflows with Grunt and Angular JS (~60 minutes) [4]

Re: AngularJS Screencasts
#28I'm so conflicted. Just as I'd decided to move on from Angular to Polymers, there seems to have been an explosion in interest and resources for Angular.

#29These screencasts by John Lindquist, available for many months with new ones appearing frequently, are awesome. The youtube channel is http://www.youtube.com/user/johnlindquist . John provides very quick yet potent explanations of most features in AngularJS. All those videos can be played at 1.5X speed using YouTube's HTML5 mode. Takes roughly 2 hours to complete them.
egghead.io = John Lindquist :)

#30I've built some real time front end stuff with knockout (due to starting off with backbone and still wanting to use the models and collections via knockback) so I'm not a complete beginner. I'm struggling with which reactive UI library to go with, but I think I'm basically down to ember and angular. Here's how I want to build my next app:
Haskell on the backend. Probably with data in postgres, but using an event sourcing kind of pattern for the bits of state which are edited.
Communication between the browser, other systems and the back end should allow separation of query and command (so updates are pushed to the backend state via one channel and pubslished back out via another). However it should be essentially realtime - websockets.
Operational transform for edits to the state. I'm on the fence with this one as I'm not sure what the overlap is between event sourcing and OT. Anyone who's implemented either care to comment? This seems to equate to using sharejs on the front end to marshal changes in the model to the back end and vice versa?
I'd consider using one of the haskell -> js libraries, but I'd also go with coffeescript here happily. I've played with Fay a bit and sunroof looks good too. Anyone using these?
The stuff above has been percolating for a while based on my experiences building the infrastructure for a hedge fund recently, and the gradual evolution from a mostly traditional restful app to a much more realtime system. Does anyone have any thoughts (not necessarily just on the specific technology mentioned but on how it all might fit together)?
