43 ngAir - Writing Angular 2 Libraries with Dmitriy Shekhovtsov and Nathan Walker

Dmitriy Shekhovtsov and Nathan Walker are among the many early adopters of Angular 2. 

Typically the best way to learn any

new framework is to write code using that framework. Dmitriy wrote 

ng2-bootstrap, an Angular 2

library that wraps Bootstrap. Nathan wrote ng2-image-lazy-load

which lets you download images on the fly after your Angular 2 has loaded.

Tune in to hear about their experiences and learn the ins 

and outs of authoring open source libraries on top of Angular 2.

Tips: Try to find something cool that is not made in Angular 2. Try to port it to Angular 2 and share your journey so others can learn from your learnings and mistakes as well.Picks:

Tips: Take time to read and understand the problem fully with consideration of everyone involved before commenting, opening an issue, or attempting to fix a problem.

Try out any angular2 seed (angular2-seed, angular2-webpack-starter, ng2-play, etc) and just play around. Create components, services, experiment with RxJS and see what you can do.
