Top Angular Developers with UpStack
Hire Angular Developers with UpStack
With so many different frontend frameworks, choosing the one that’s right for your company can be tough. And when you add in the other various factors like budget, timeline and team skillsets, the decision becomes even trickier. Unsurprisingly, there are pros and cons to each of the major frontend frameworks out there. However, choosing the right one is more than just a matter of weighing their respective pros and cons: The wrong choice can have cascading effects throughout your organization – not only slowing down progress on new projects but also creating roadblocks for future growth. On that note, if you’re currently looking to hire an Angular developer or another frontend specialist with knowledge of this framework, here are some things you should keep in mind before making your final hiring decision.
Decide on the Angular Skills You Need Now and in the Future
Depending on the project, the hiring goals and the specific use case, some companies may need to prioritize hiring AngularJS developers who have strong frontend engineering skills, while others may be more focused on hiring people with strong AngularJS programming skills. If your company currently has a lot of frontend engineering projects on the docket, it makes sense for you to hire AngularJS specialists with strong frontend engineering skills. These kinds of hires will help you to create new features and code from scratch. Alternatively, if you’re looking to save time and money on existing projects, you can hire AngularJS developers with strong software engineering skills to help migrate your codebase to the latest version of AngularJS. As you’ll see below, each of these skill sets has its own pros and cons, so it’s important to choose the one that’s right for your specific hiring needs.
Decide on an AngularJS Development Language
If you’re hiring an Angular.js developer, you should also keep in mind the language used to write the actual AngularJS codebase. While AngularJS itself is not a programming language, most companies will write their apps in one of two major programming languages: JavaScript or TypeScript. While the two languages are quite similar, the main difference between JavaScript and TypeScript is that the latter is a superset of the former. This means that all valid JavaScript code is also valid TypeScript code. However, the opposite is not true. When deciding on a language for your project’s AngularJS codebase, there are a few factors to keep in mind. First and foremost, you’ll need to decide whether you want to write your app in JavaScript or TypeScript. This decision will largely be determined by your hiring needs. Generally speaking, JavaScript is the more widely used language, so you’ll likely find more JavaScript developers out there. That said, it’s important to note that JavaScript has some significant pitfalls (see below for more details). TypeScript, on the other hand, is a superset of JavaScript that can help to avoid many of JavaScript’s pitfalls. However, TypeScript is not as widely used as JavaScript, so you’ll likely have to look harder to find qualified candidates.
Decide on a Hosting Platform for Your Angular.js App
Another important factor to keep in mind when hiring an Angular developer is the hosting platform for your app. While you can technically host your frontend app in any cloud-based hosting platform, there are certain hosting platforms that are more suited to certain frameworks than others. Hosting platforms are often used to describe the servers where your code will actually run. These hosting platforms will also govern which operating systems your app will run on. If you’re hiring an AngularJS developer, you’ll want to make sure that you’re hosting your app on a hosting platform that’s well-suited to this framework.
Decide on a Unit Testing Strategy for Your Angular Codebase
Depending on the nature of your project, you may want to hire an AngularJS developer with strong unit testing skills. If so, you’ll want to make sure that you hire someone who has experience with unit testing an AngularJS codebase. The good news is that every major framework or language has some kind of unit testing functionality, and AngularJS is no different. That said, the specifics of how unit testing works in AngularJS is a bit different than it is for other frameworks. Unlike other frontend frameworks like React and Vue, Angular does not operate with a rendered view. Instead, the view is generated programmatically at runtime. That said, unit testing in AngularJS is still done using the same process as other frameworks – i.e. you write tests outside of the app and then manually inject test data into the app at runtime.

Why Angular is a great choice for your next project
Today, as front-end development continues to grow and evolve as a job market, developers need to stay on top of changing trends. And with new frameworks emerging every day and older ones continuing to develop, it can be hard for devs to keep up. The popularity of the AngularJS framework has grown steadily in recent years because of its simplicity, speed and ease of use. Hence, this section explains why you should explore AngularJS if you’re looking for an efficient way to build dynamic single-page applications (SPAs) during your next project.
It’s easy to learn and use.
One of the best advantages of Angular.js is that it’s easy to understand. Its appeal is largely due to its simplicity. It’s an MVC framework, which makes it easy to organize code. It’s also written in JavaScript, so if you’re familiar with the language, it’s an even easier transition. The learning curve for Angular is shorter than that of other frameworks such as React, Vue or Backbone. This is largely because AngularJS uses conventions rather than strict rules. If you’re just starting out and need a way to get better at web development, Angular is a great choice.
It allows for better code organization.
When you’re first learning about AngularJS, the most important thing you need to understand is the difference between the model, view and controller. Angular.js allows you to create controllers for functions, view for how things will look and models for data or functions. The controllers are what bind everything together. You can create functions to handle data, show data in the view or give instructions to the view. This is how everything is organized within Angular, so it’s important to get a good grasp on this before moving forward. Once you understand how controllers, views and models work, you’ll be able to code more efficiently and organize your functions and data better.
AngularJS is fast.
Speed is one of the most important factors when it comes to choosing a new framework. If your apps are slow, users will bounce and never come back. And if you’re working on a high-traffic site, speed is even more important. Angular.js is a JavaScript framework that’s known for being fast. It uses a digest cycle that allows the view to update when data changes instead of refreshing the page. This is why it’s faster than many other frameworks that use page refreshes. Angular can be used to build complex web applications that are fast and responsive. If speed is a major concern for your company, AngularJS is a good option.
MVC is built in.
With all of the different types of frameworks available, it’s important to understand the different types of architectures that are used within each one. While many frameworks use MVC, it’s not necessarily built in. In Angular.js, MVC is built in, which makes it easier to use. You don’t have to write code or use libraries to make it work. MVC is built into the framework, so you can start building with it right away. MVC stands for model, view and controller. It’s an architectural pattern used to develop software applications.
HTML is maintained with JS.
There has always been debate amongst developers about whether HTML or JavaScript is better for building SPAs. Some say to only use JavaScript because it’s more efficient. Others say that HTML is better because it’s cleaner and easier to read. Luckily, AngularJS allows for both. It maintains the HTML with JavaScript. If you want to add some functionality to an element, you can do that with JavaScript. If you want to add an element to your view, you just do that in HTML. This is how AngularJS maintains the two. It allows you to use the two together and you can decide which one to use for which purpose.
View sync is out of the box.
With Angular.js, view sync is out of the box. This means that when you add a model to your view, the view updates. When you delete the model from the view, the view updates. This is a very important concept to grasp when working with Angular. If you don’t understand how the view sync works, you could run into problems while building your application. It’s important to understand how the view sync works so you don’t add data to the view that isn’t supposed to be there. It’s also important to know how to delete data from the view when necessary.
Angular provides many tools to aid development.
One of the best things about AngularJS is that it comes with many tools to help you develop your application. You can use tools such as libraries, extensions or modules to make your life easier. These tools allow you to do things like build a single-page application, create a website, build a mobile app or build web services. They also allow you to test your code, minify your code and build in proxy. These tools come with the framework, making it easy to get started. They allow you to spend less time setting up and more time actually developing your application.
