What is Angular?

If you’re looking at building a new digital product for your business, you’ve probably heard people mention Angular. But what is all the hype actually about? Put simply, Angular is a front end framework created and maintained by Google that helps developers build apps and websites that are fast, reliable and easy to use. What's more, because of it's modular and code recycling set up, Angular offers a way to develop applications by reusing components rather than writing them all from scratch - this translates to less developer time and saved costs - or at least, it should...

With Angular, you’re not just limited to one type of app. You can create online booking systems, ecommerce stores, mobile apps, dashboards for managing your team or even platforms for publishing content. It’s flexible, it’s highly robust and subsequently, it’s trusted by companies of all shapes and sizes all across the globe.

The technical side to Angular?

Angular can act as the foundation your digital product is built on. It sets the tone for how smooth the user experience feels, how quickly new features can be added and how well your app grows within (and outside of if applicable) your business. Here are some of the key, technical features that make Angular such a popular choice:

Feature	Description
Two way data binding	Synchronises data between the component and view in real time, easing the process of developing web applications
Component Based Architecture	A structured and modular approach where applications are built from encapsulated components, each responsible for its own logic and view. This simplifies code management, improves maintainability and makes it easier to scale applications as each component can be developed, tested and reused independently.
Dependency Injection	Improves modularity and testability
Directives	Built in directives and services allow developers to streamline common tasks, while its extensive ecosystem supports a wide range of third party libraries and tools
Efficient Asynchronous Operations	Using observables and operators, Angular simplifies the management of asynchronous tasks such as HTTP requests and user interactions

How can Angular help my business?

The benefits of using Angular are aplenty. If you want to improve the user experience of your applications for example, Angular is a great place to start - you can expect applications to be interactive and responsive whilst providing a consistent experience across various different platforms.

Great user experience

Angular allows you to build dynamic and responsive web applications with highly interactive user interfaces. This can greatly enhance the user experience which subsequently increases engagement - a good indicator that people actually want to use your app, whether that be internally or externally.

Faster development time

Angular provides a structured and modular approach to web development which is a breath of fresh air to developers far and wide. It offers features like declarative templates, data binding and dependency injection which can significantly speed up the development process - allowing your business to deliver products and features to market more quickly whilst you save on developer costs in the process - win, win.

Code reusability

Angular promotes code reusability through its component based architecture - another solid win for developers and business owners alike. Components can be easily reused across different parts of your application again, reducing development time and subsequently, resource costs. This aspect can also be particularly beneficial for businesses that require multiple web applications or modules as reusing the components mean they won't take as long to develop!

Scalability

Angular is designed for large and complex applications with features including lazy loading. This allows you to load modules on demand i.e. when they are needed during times of change. These modules can greatly help to improve performance and scalability of your app(s) and are particularly advantageous for businesses that anticipate growth and expansion in their web applications.

Community and support

Angular has a large and active community of developers which means there are plenty of resources, tutorials and libraries available to the developers you work with - internal or external. This can be extremely helpful for the development team in finding solutions to challenges, staying updated with the latest trends and accessing support when needed.

Ideal projects for Angular

Angular is a solid contender for all types of front end development work and it would be impossible to create an exhaustive list that covered them all. That being said, here are some of the projects we have found to be particularly well suited to this versatile technology -

Enterprise apps: Including CRM, ERP or WFM systems - Angular’s structure and scalability really help here.

SPAs: Where you need fast, fluid navigation and a consistent experience. Think booking systems, learning platforms or productivity apps.

PWAs: That need offline support, caching and install prompts - ideal for retail, travel or media applications.

CMS platforms: Where strong form handling and dynamic interfaces make editorial dashboards or publishing tools simple to build.

Ecommerce: Where you need failsafe handling of carts, filtering, secure checkouts and all the bells and whistles of an online store.
