There are many Angular courses on the Web now. Which one should you take? If you're looking to dive deeper into custom Angular directives and want to learn from a developer/instructor with over 20 years of experience who has also been awarded the Angular Google Developer Expert (GDE) award from Google then this is the course for you! Dan also created the popular AngularJS in 60-ish Minutes video on YouTube (over 1.9 million views) so if you enjoyed that then you'll love this course!
