AngularJS experiments

AngularJS has come across a very different framework. Unlike jquery which was a library, angular has its own patterns and rules which a developer must understand and use. This took significant time to understand and implement

1. Data binding with angularJS - This included implementation of tables with angular JS as well.
2. Search using AngularJS filters
3. Search using $http and JSON response.
4. AngularJS form field validations example.
5. AngularJS-UI google maps

jQuery Experiments

Week 3 was spent learning the most popular library available for web UI - jQuery. The APIs were found to be easy to use and the documentation available on the web was extensive. Apart from the goodness of the core library, the jQuery-UI extension provides a rich set of UI controls which are very useful and easy to code with jQuery. My experiments are as follows.

1. jQueryUi - Drag and Drop
2. jQueryUi - Sortable elements
3. jQuery effect() method
4. jQuery animate() method
5. jQuery slideshow
