I thoroughly enjoyed working through the book and I'd definitely recommend it to others." - Elliot Forbes, TutorialEdge.net "Rated as 4.5 on Amazon, Angular 2 Cookbook is one of the best books around. Random Easter eggs make the book even interesting to read." - TechPikk "...I would recommend Frisbie's Angular 2 Cookbook. I found Chapters 6 (routing), 8 (organizing and managing applications), and 10 (performance) particularly helpful, but have lots of sticky notes marking other places as well... Angular is complicated because the problems it solves are complicated. Its internal documentation is much better than it used to be, but there will always be a place for good tutorials and reference works. With Hussain and Frisbie's books, Angular has at least one of each." - Greg Wilson, Rangle.io "Angular 2 Cookbook is the best guide for developers who're competent with JavaScript and looking to dive headfirst into the TypeScript edition of Angular 2.
