Angular with Relaunch

This course will teach you step-by-step how to design and architect large Angular applications. 

You’ll start with the basics: components, pipes, and directives. These are the building blocks of any Angular application, so you will get plenty of hands-on practice with this material. Next, you’ll ramp things up by stepping into modules, routing, and RXJS, where you’ll learn how to declaratively manage data and dive deep into observables.

In the latter half of the course, you’ll cover reactive and template forms (crucial for handling user data), as well as custom validators and setting up authentication with Firebase.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to design large, scalable applications, be able to develop rich interactive components, and you’ll really understand how Angular works under the hood.

Angular: Designing and Architecting Web Applications

The next project we'll work on will display a set of images with pagination. The main focus of this section is to learn about directives. First things first, we'll prepare a new project.

## New project

If you're running code locally, then you'll need to run the following command:

```bash
ng new directives
```

During the setup process, you'll be asked to configure the project. Go with the default settings.

## Installing Bootstrap

After installing the project, navigate to the newly created directory, and install Bootstrap. We'll be using it to help us with styles. You can run the following command to install Bootstrap:

```bash
npm i bootstrap
```

We'll need to update the `styles.css` file to import Bootstrap.

```css
@import "bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css"
```

## Adding data

The next thing we'll do is add the set of images we'll be using in the application. If you'd like, you can download some of your favorite and upload them to the `assets` directory. Alternatively, you can provide a direct link to them. There are two sites where you can grab royalty-free images: [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com/) and [Lorem Picsum](https://picsum.photos/). 

Once you've retrieved your images, we'll update the `app.component.ts` file to define a property called `images`. Each item in the array will be an object with two properties: `title` and `url`. The `title` property will be dummy text, and the `url` property will be the URL to the image.
