Tools that every Angular developer should handle

 

1. Node Package Manager (npm)

 

This is a necessary tool for all web developers these days. Everything in Angular is distributed in various npm packages, so it is very likely that at some point you will need to install some useful non-Angular packages, so it is convenient to know how to do it for when you need it.

 

2. Angular CLI

 

The first Angular package that you need to install with npm is the Angular CLI (Command Line Interface). While it is certainly possible to install Angular packages individually and write all the code by hand to configure your new application, the CLI makes that process much easier and ensures that your application will adhere to accepted best practices.

 

3. HTML and CSS

 

Three families of programming languages ​​form the basic tools involved in virtually every aspect of web development: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The first two are vital knowledge for every Angular developer, although this framework provides the basic components you need to create fast and functional applications, those applications still have to be rendered in a browser and that means creating user interfaces with HTML and CSS.

 

4. Angular

 

This tool is so obvious that it seems almost unnecessary to put it on this list, but you might be surprised how many times this is left out. To be a good Angular developer, you must have a solid understanding of this framework. It will take some time to achieve it due to its breadth, but it will be worth it.

 

5. TypeScript

 

Client-side web applications have traditionally been written with JavaScript. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that includes support for strong writing. Angular is written in TypeScript. It is the recommended language for creating applications with Angular.
