Hello guys, if you are interested in learning the Angular framework, one of the most popular JavaScript frameworks for developing component-based Web GUI and looking for some awesome resources like courses, tutorials, and books, then you have come to the right place.

In this article, I am going to share some of the best resources e.g. books, tutorials, and courses to learn the Angular framework, formerly known as Angular JS and now famous as simply Angular.

It’s backed by Google, hence you should not worry about it being out-dated and lose relevance in a couple of years. Any investment you made in learning Angular will pay you rich dividends in the coming years.

As per StackOverflow’s 2018 Survey, Angular is the second most popular framework after Node.js and one of the main reasons behind JavaScirpt’s popularity among web developers.
