Rainer Hahnekamp, GDE
Experienced developer, software architect for enterprise applications, GDE for Angular, and NGRX Team Member. He runs Ng-News, a weekly Angular video newslette, speaks at international conferences.

In this two-day workshop, you’ll learn how to enhance the quality and maintainability of your Angular projects significantly.

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:

Create Custom ESLint Rules: Craft your own ESLint rules and harness existing ones to tailor code quality checks to your team’s specific needs.
Develop Angular Schematics: Build your own schematics from scratch to automate and standardize the creation of code structures within your projects.
Apply Code Metrics: Utilize key metrics like the Maintainability Index, Cyclomatic Complexity, and Code Churn to analyze and improve your project’s performance.
Manage library releases: Ensure stability, accurate versioning, and thorough documentation using API guides and Storybook with the help of tools like Nx Release

We’ll kick off with ESLint, where you’ll learn to craft your own rules step-by-step. By the end, you’ll be equipped to create customizable rules that not only fix code automatically but also efficiently validate Angular templates.

The journey continues with Angular Schematics. You’ll start from the basics, learning how to develop them to automate the generation of repetitive code segments and ensure consistent use of libraries across your projects. You’ll also learn how to integrate these tools into the powerful ng update process.

We’ll also take a look at the Nx Generators—a powerful enhancement to Schematics that adds features and tools for more sophisticated development workflows.

The next topic is code metrics, where we focus on key indicators such as the Maintainability Index, Cyclomatic Complexity, and Code Churn. You will understand how these metrics operate, what benefits they offer, and how they can be used to gauge and improve the health of your codebase.

Additionally, we’ll cover popular tooling, such as SonarQube, and discuss how to seamlessly integrate it into your CI (GitHub Actions) process for continuous quality checks.

Libraries are critical to software development, requiring effective management to ensure stability, accurate versioning, and clear documentation of changes. This workshop will cover robust release strategies, including maintaining a clean Git history, documenting with API guides and Storybook, and establishing a strong CI pipeline. Utilizing tools like Nx Release and Commitizen, participants will learn practical skills for streamlining library releases and maintaining quality standards.

Every session brought important insights. A lot of useful information about best practices and about the best tooling and libraries to use, including the latest advancements like component testing in Cypress. I thought the structure going from e2e to unit to integration tests worked surprisingly well.

I had never used Storybook and only fiddled around with Figma and Cypress on my own before. As a novice on the design field this course described the roles and purposes of these three tools well. I now have better knowledge to pitch the idea of implementing the most suitable parts to our development cycle.

Manfred is very approachable, patient, respectful, and easy to understand, even when attendees ask repetitive questions - this is impressive. Explanation of the labs was very good. Explanations focused on the mental model behind the code, which is most important to registering conceptual relationships in the framework/ddd.

Most of the topics that were covered in this workshop will help us for future decisions for our app architecture. Even if the team would decide to not use what was shown in the workshop, it's still very useful to get an overview of how an app architecture could be, so that we can find the best solution for our problems. I really liked that we had some time on the last day to go into specific problems of our app and to hear about what could be changed and what we could work on

Being new to Angular and with very little experience using NX this gave me a great introduction to many of the concepts and pointers on best practices for structuring the code base. I will feel more confident working on our company code base now.
I also appreciated the concrete examples of how to implement DDD in folder and files structures.

FAQs on our workshops

How do your workshops and courses work?

Our seminars around Angular are a mixture of lecture, live coding and actual exercises. Together we implement what we have learned during the workshop directly on a example project. This mixture guarantees that the course never gets boring and “hands-on” is required instead of gray theory.

Who is the Angular hands-on training designed for?

Our Angular hands-on workshop is aimed at anyone who wants to develop applications with Angular in the future or is already doing so and now wants to better understand the background, context and building blocks of the framework.

Participants should have basic knowledge of web development (basic knowledge of HTML and JavaScript).

For advanced Angular developers we offer advanced seminars and intensive trainings on specific use cases.

Where do the Angular workshops take place?

Our trainings take place as public workshops in seminar rooms at central hotels in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In-House company workshops take place at your office or conference room.

All courses are also available as remote workshops, where we meet online in a virtual classroom and do the training via video calls, screen sharing and live coding.

Who are the trainers?

Our workshops are held by experienced trainers and software architects. In recent years, we have provided Angular training to well-known companies – including well-known banks, insurance companies, industrial groups. Trainers include well-known conference speakers, authors of books and professional articles, bloggers, Google Developer Experts and university lecturers.

At what times are the training sessions held?

Especially for dedicated company trainings, we are happy to accommodate you. Typical times are 9:00AM to 4:30PM / 5:00PM. Some of our English-language workshops are timed so that you can also attend at US friendly times.

Can we also book online training courses?

Absolutely. In fact, since the pandemic, this has been our main business model and we have had very good experience with it. We use a combination of screen sharing, interactive online whiteboards, and are happy to connect to your computer for support during the exercises if you wish. As with our on-site training, we use a combination of short presentations, discussions, live coding and hands-on labs.

Since there is no travel involved, you also save time and money. We can also respond more flexibly to your scheduling needs.

Can we adapt the training for our purposes?

Yes, very much so. In fact, that’s one of the benefits of dedicated corporate training. You are welcome to weight, shorten or add to our agenda proposals. As a rule, we also coordinate with your trainer about 2 weeks before the training. If you wish, we can also arrange it earlier.

Why Angular?

Among other things, Angular’s wide distribution speaks for itself, but also the fact that Google, an Internet giant that also uses the framework very intensively, is behind it. Google alone has over 2600 solutions based on it. Due to the wide distribution, there is a large community and thus a lot of know-how on the market as well as (free and commercial) products that are adapted to Angular. In addition, Angular provides much of what you need for large applications out of the box: test automation, form management, routing, etc. In this respect, you get a stack whose components are coordinated and work together in the long term.

How do you compensate for different prior knowledge?

The good news up front is that participants with different levels of prior knowledge are the rule, not the exception, in adult education. That’s why you’ll find optional fade-in hints and bonus exercises on our exercise sheets, for those who are a little faster. Of course, we also provide personal support for the exercises.

How many participants are recommended?

If you book a company training with us, we leave this decision to you in principle. However, experience shows that there should not be more than 15 participants, especially since a seminar lives very much from questions, discussions and practical exercises.

What software do we need?

Please install the following software packages on your computer:

– NodeJS in current version (we test with current LTS version).
– Angular CLI (npm i -g @angular/cli)
– Git
– Visual Studio (free) or WebStorm/IntelliJ (commercial)
