Version 2.0 is a major leap from the 1.x version designed to address shortcomings in the original 5+-year-old framework and to embrace modern browsers and language features.

In this session, I'll go hands-on to show you how to set up your environment and build your first application while teaching you about the advantages of the framework and language based on my years of in-the-field experience architecting enterprise Angular applications.
