On to why you should avoid spending money.The JavaScript code in the book is terrible quality and perpetuates horrid coding practice and style. No apparent attempt at code review took place and if it did then by complete armatures. Some examples:- multiple var declarations (which is a performance hit)- lack of semi-colons (;) where needed (syntax errors)- example code that just doesn't work - for example the end of chapter two gets into using CSS classes for the form validation. Other than a broken implementation of showing a red or green border around the text fields there is no validation...for example the HTML markup in the example lacks the 'required' keyword in the tags that tell Angular the fields are required and there is no form validation code in the example.There is little to no depth in teaching you to understand the blueprint. For the most part the author has merely re-worded AngularJS documentation freely available off of the official website docs. For example the book says:"A couple of points to remember with regard to services are as follows: They are singleton objects that are initiated only once, and they persist throughout the lifetime of the app Services are lazy loaded, that is, they get initiated only when an application component depends on it These services are "injected" or mapped to the components using DI"Rufus, Vinci (2014-08-25). AngularJS Web Application Development Blueprints (p. 95). Packt Publishing. Kindle Edition.Online Documentation:"Angular services are substitutable objects that are wired together using dependency injection (DI). You can use services to organize and share code across your app.Angular services are:Lazily instantiated – Angular only instantiates a service when an application component depends on it.Singletons – Each component dependent on a service gets a reference to the single instance generated by the service factory.Angular offers several useful services (like $http), but for most applications you'll also want to create your own."https://code.angularjs.org/1.2.25/docs/guide/servicesI had purchased this book because, based off of the table of contents, the author would get into using Angular as a true MVC framework - namely, have "real world" code examples of using true Models rather than what everyone else uses which is basically using the $scope in the controller (again not a best practice). I can only explain that I get the impression that the author is a entry level front end developer with little to no experience with the craft of application development. This is the first time I've read a book and thought I should contact the publisher.My apologies for such a harsh review, but cannot abide with the thought of letting others make the same mistake I did. There are way to many freely available sources of learning for Angular out there. I believe that CodeSchool has a free class on it, there are many great Google.io videos and numerous blogs on the subject. (though most make the same "lets put everything in the controller" "mistake"...mostly due to trying to make "the examples clearer") ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just what I needed at my stage of learning *by T***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 23, 2016* I'm still new at learning JavaScript, JavaScript libraries, scaffolding tools, and so on. This is one of the best books I have read. When I focused on the MEAN stack (MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, and Node), I read Haviv's " MEAN Web Development ," by the same publisher. Haviv's book is thorough and informative in its own right; however, I realized I needed to understand AngularJS better.Rufus's book brought up to speed on AngularJS pretty quickly. For example, the "Setting up your rig" chapter was very helpful (a lot of other books assume you already know this--but I'm still getting started and didn't know what would be helpful in the AngularJS world). The example apps Rufus shows how to build incorporate a good spectrum of bells and whistles--and weren't too much over my head. The icing on the cake for me was the MEAN app project that Rufus presents toward the end of the book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/12090558-angularjs-web-application-development-blueprints](https://www.desertcart.is/products/12090558-angularjs-web-application-development-blueprints) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
