CodeBlogue – My First Full-Stack Web Project

🚀 CodeBlogue – My First Project

CodeBlogue is the first personal project I worked on when I started my journey as a web developer.
It is a personal blog application built using the MEAN stack, with the main goal of learning modern web development concepts on both the frontend and backend.

This project represents my first hands-on experience building a complete full-stack JavaScript application.

🎯 Project Goals

• Learn the fundamentals of Angular
• Understand frontend and backend architecture
• Implement user authentication and authorization
• Work with a NoSQL database (MongoDB)
• Build a complete web application from scratch

🖥️ Frontend – Angular

The frontend went through several major evolutions over time:

• Initially developed using AngularJS
• Migrated to Angular 2 after the major framework rewrite
• Gradually evolved up to Angular 7

This evolution allowed me to better understand the architectural changes between AngularJS and modern Angular, as well as best practices introduced in newer versions.

🔧 Angular Concepts Covered

• TypeScript based on classes and modules
• Routing:
  • Main routes
  • Child routes
  • Lazy-loaded modules
• Custom components:
  • Custom @Input and @Output properties
• Custom directives
• Custom pipes
• Defining properties and handling events in components and directives
• HTTP communication:
  • Ajax calls
  • RxJS Observ
