Angular, Unit Testing, and Figma

🚀 Course Title: Angular, Unit Testing, and Figma Mastery 🎓

Headline: Building a simple dashboard using Angular Material with an expert in the field, Dr. Jorge Guerra Pires!

Introduction: Every web developer relies heavily on one web framework or another (and sometimes more if their services have different requirements). Each framework has its own pros and cons, as highlighted by industry experts like Jay Bell, Greg Magolan, David Guijarro, Adrien de Peretti, and Patrick Housley in their discussions about NestJS. 🛠️

Before diving into the complexities of backend technologies, it's essential to master the art of frontend development with Angular. Angular, a Google-backed framework, is not only a Single Page Application (SPA) generator but also a robust tool for building fully functional frontends without the need for backend frameworks/libraries like Express/Node.js/NestJS. With recent integrations like Firebase, Angular has become even more powerful, offering features such as machine learning and Google-based authentication.

Course Overview: This course is a deep dive into Angular, focusing on unit testing with Jasmine/Karma, and incorporating design tools like Figma into your development workflow. It's designed to be accessible for learners at all levels, with a particular emphasis on unit testing. The course will guide you through creating a simple dashboard and explain how to extend it further in subsequent volumes.

What You Will Learn:

• Unit Testing with Jasmine/Karma: Master the art of writing tests for your Angular components to ensure they function as expected before they are deployed. 🧪
