Building a full stack application from scratch with React

In this tutorial we’re going to build a simple single-page application with React (v16 and above). This is intended for developers unfamiliar with the new framework or having some experience with React. First of all, I got Visual Studio Code installed on my machine and it’s running on Linux. I chose VS Code because we’ll be working with JavaScript and JSX and it has great support for those, but you can code in your favourite IDE as well. The code project for this article was generated with create-react-app, a scaffolding tool for React. You’ll also need to have Git, Node.js and npm installed.

Building a full stack application from scratch with Angular

UPDATE: This article and its associated code have been updated for Angular 8.x. The same article is also available for React.

In this tutorial we’re going to build a simple single-page application with Angular (v8 and above). This is intended for developers unfamiliar with the new framework or having some experience with AngularJS. First of all, I got Visual Studio Code installed on my machine and it’s running on Linux. I chose VS Code because we’ll be working with TypeScript mostly and it has great support for it, but you can code in your favourite IDE as well. Originally, the code in this article was based on the excellent Angular 2 Seed project by Minko Gechev That project is now deprecated in favor of Angular CLI and the code here has been migrated to use the new official build tool for Angular. You’ll also need to have Git, Node.js and npm installed.
