Yes, it could be longer, but it’s not!
Let me start out by saying that this isn’t a 9-hour, in-depth, comprehensive course on Angular. Instead, it’s a no-nonsense guide to getting your Angular app hosted as a Progressive Web Application (PWA) as quickly as possible, and with a minimum amount of fluff.
You’ll thank me for not wasting your time.
Forget the App Stores!
They are too expensive: While Google only charges a one-time $25 fee to join, Apple charges $99/year just for the privilege of hosting your apps there. And even if you are willing to pay, those companies still have veto power over the content of your application.
They are too complicated: Have you seen what’s required to submit an application to either Apple or Google?
Updates are painful: Each update to a mobile App Store requires going through the entire submission problem
You risk arbitrary rejection: When submitting to an app store, it is possible that a faceless stranger might reject your app. I actually had an app rejected by Apple because, “it provided no user value.” Ouch.
It’s time to say no.
As a software developer, you want your apps to reach as many people as possible, right? Which platform should you target to reach the most users possible? How about all of them? Progressive Web Apps, or PWAs, let you do just that… and without paying Google or Apple to be in their stores.
Progressive Web Apps to the Rescue
No App Store Submissions! One of my favorite reasons to choose a PWA is that there are no app store submissions. If you are building an app for the enterprise, you may not want it distributed to users outside of your organization.
Painless Updates: updating a PWA is no different than updating any other web app. Your features or bug fixes can go live as quickly as your build process allows.
What are you getting?
In this course, I’ll show you how to take an existing Angular application and deploy it to the web as a Progressive Web Application. This will make it easy for you to target the web, iOS, and Android, all at the same time, without ever asking Google or Apple for permission.
By the end of this course, you should have all the knowledge and confidence you need to deploy your own PWA that all your potential users can enjoy.
This is the complete presentation I was planning to give at DevIntersection Orlando in April. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, the entire conference was canceled. Rather than letting this important material go to waste, it seemed prudent to make it available to the general public, and at a much lower price.
If you were planning to attend DevIntersection last spring, you (or your employer) would have spent about $1500 to get in the door. Then you would have had to decide which of a dozen or so sessions to attend at any given time. It’s likely you would still have missed this one, and that would be a shame.
If you were to hire a professional consultant to come train you on this content in-person, it would probably cost upwards of $2000 per day once you factor in travel costs. This might make sense for a Fortune 500 company but not for a single individual or small user group meeting.
