AngularJS is an extremely popular JavaScript framework from Google. It makes building front-end apps easy and efficient. It's feature-rich and extensible, and allows us to easily build libraries on top of it. ngForce is one such library that extends AngularJS and provides various Force.com APIs to make it trivial to build HTML5 Force.com apps. Join us for an introduction to the Angular.js framework, and to the ngForce framework for Angular Salesforce applications. You'll experience the rapidity and flexibility of Angular and ngForce by participating in the development of a simple, responsive desktop and mobile application that displays Opportunities from a development org, and more.
