I didn't plan to post here today but after the Firebase acquisition I figured why not.
This is the course I wish I had when I was learning Angular. It was a painful process that sucked. I was really annoyed that I wasn't getting anywhere fast after reading the docs and countless tutorials. And when I felt like I did grasp the concepts, it was hard to find examples of complete apps once I was ready to build something.
So I made the course to address these issues. After you go through this you'll finally get how all the pieces fit together. And when you look at the docs again, everything will make so much more sense. You'll also have a neat product that you could actually sell to businesses.
And of course you'll learn Firebase, the real time datastore that was acquired by Google today.
If you haven't worked with Firebase, it's worth going through the course just to see how it works. It makes development incredibly fast and fun. Like a lot of other people, I thought that Firebase would just be a toy for hackathons and side projects, but the more I used it, the harder it was to go back to the way I was handling data before.
Now Firebase is the first thing I turn to when I want to build apps. It's that good.
I feel like the page should include some mention of the prerequisites of the course. Should I already be familiar with Javascript, or can I start as a non-Web developer?

Having said there are quite a few students that have gone on through the course without any background at all.
