Been wondering how you can leverage your MEAN Stack and/or AngularJS knowledge to create Meteor Apps? So what is Meteor all about, and how did they manage to convince people to invest MILLIONS in what they’re doing?
In this tutorial video we’ll get fancy with Autocomplete! We’ll look at some sweet little tricks that you can use when you’re working with small datasets. Both Local and Remote/Server side sets of data can be handled in a similar once the data is available to AngularJS.
Lets take the Mean Stack angular material design app created in the AngularJs Material Starter series, and move the code into a new Meteorjs app.
In this tutorial video we’ll create a working contact form! Each time a user sends a message using the contact form, an email will be sent to your designated email address.
How can you take the server side of your expressJS based, Mean Stack app, and turn it into a Meteor App? Let’s take a look at sending emails using Meteor.
In this video we’ll add a search input and new customer button to our List Customers Page. We’ll also use AngularJS Filters to connect our search input to our list of customers, to let us filter through our list of customers.
We look at:
– Continuing to set up the List Customers Page
– Determining the grid layout for mobile vs. larger devices
– Using col-xs and col-sm to change grid sizes based on device size
– Finding and using Bootstrap classes for input-groups for our search bar
– Adjusting the size of input-groups and buttons to align to the wireframe
– Connecting the search input to the list of customers
– Finding Angular Filter documentation on the AngularJS website
– Using Angular Filter syntax to add filtering functionality to our app
– Adding place-holder text to our Search input
In this video we’ll create our own notification service using an AngularJS Factory with publication and subscription methods. We’ll use this service to send messages between our Create Customer Modal, and our Customer List to refresh the list when a new customer is created.
We look at:
– Creating a new AngularJS notification Factory Service
– Setting up functionality within the Service to send a message and data
– Setting up functionality with the Service to receive a message and data
– Hooking up our Create Customer Controller with the new notification service
– Using the new notification service to send data when a new customer is created
– Hooking up our Customer List directive with the new notification service to update the list when a new customer is created
– Creating a new customer to test out our new Service
In this video we’ll use the yeoman generator to create a new Angular.js directive.
Ever felt like: OMG! Which web framework should I use? How do I know if I’m picking the right one? WHY IS IT SO HARD!!
We look at:
– Our App Designs (use cases, storyboard, and wireframes)
– We’ll then take the design and split it into a Bootstrap grid layout.
– Locating the home page in the MEAN Stack app structure
– We start building a responsive web app using Bootstrap!
Behaviour driven tests are also a great way to make sure that the requirements aren’t forgotten about as the project progresses. There’s no better way to show progress than when you can easily show how many tests are passing at any point in time.
Startup Victoria's fireside chat with Paul Bassat and John Collison is underway!
