Reactive Patterns with RxJS and Angular Signals. Elevate your Angular 18 applications with RxJS Observables, subjects, operators, and Angular Signals - Second Edition

Lamis Chebbi, Aristeidis Bampakos

RxJS is a powerful reactive extension for JavaScript, specializing in asynchronous and event-driven programming, but you don’t find many books on using RxJS in Angular applications. Written by an industry expert with over a decade of experience, this book helps you navigate reactive patterns, efficient data management, and the streamlined implementation of common features with minimal code.This second edition aligns with the latest version of Angular, introducing new reactive patterns based on Angular Signals, which play a pivotal role in enabling fine-grained reactivity within Angular and enhancing change detection and user interface rendering. Throughout the book, you’ll construct a complete application that incorporates the latest Angular features, such as standalone components, new built-in control flow, deferrable views, and more. You’ll also focus on cultivating skills to handle data reactively, thus improving the application's overall quality, user experience, and developer productivity. The book covers best practices for testing asynchronous streams and optimizing app performance.By the end of this RxJS and Angular book, you’ll not only be able to develop Angular applications by implementing reactive patterns, but also grasp all the best practices, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of RxJS within the Angular framework.

Finally, you'll analyze the future of Rematch and how the frontend ecosystem is becoming easier to use and maintain with alternatives to Redux.By the end of this book, you'll be able to have total control of the application state and use Rematch to manage its scalability with simplicity.

Redux Quick Start Guide. A beginner's guide to managing app state with Redux

James Lee, Tao Wei, Suresh Kumar Mukhiya

Starting with a detailed overview of Redux, we will follow the test-driven development (TDD) approach to develop single-page applications. We will set up JEST for testing and use JEST to test React, Redux, Redux-Sage, Reducers, and other components. We will then add important middleware and set up immutableJS in our application. We will use common data structures such as Map, List, Set, and OrderedList from the immutableJS framework. We will then add user interfaces using ReactJS, Redux-Form, and Ant Design.We will explore the use of react-router-dom and its functions. We will create a list of routes that we will need in order to create our application, and explore routing on the server site and create the required routes for our application. We will then debug our application and integrate Redux Dev tools.We will then set up our API server and create the API required for our application. We will dive into a modern approach to structuring our server site components in terms of Model, Controller, Helper functions, and utilities functions. We will explore the use of NodeJS with Express to build the REST API components. Finally, we will venture into the possibilities of extending the application for further research, including deployment and optimization.

Refactoring TypeScript. Keeping your code healthy

James Hickey

Refactoring improves your code without changing its behavior. With refactoring, the best approach is to apply small targeted changes to a codebase. Instead of doing a huge sweeping change to your code, refactoring is better as a long-term and continuous enterprise. Refactoring TypeScript explains how to spot bugs and remove them from your code.You’ll start by seeing how wordy conditionals, methods, and null checks make code unhealthy and unstable. Whether it is identifying messy nested conditionals or removing unnecessary methods, this book will show various techniques to avoid these pitfalls and write code that is easier to understand, maintain, and test.By the end of the book, you’ll have learned some of the main causes of unhealthy code, tips to identify them and techniques to address them.
