This is Part 2 of a series of articles where you and I build a mobile app without any coding. The app we are working on is a ToDo app. In the previous post you did the following:
- Set up your Backendless (backend) account.
- Set up your Dropsource (frontend) account.
- Implemented (without any coding of course) application lifecycle.
- Implement the landing page for the mobile app.
In this part of the series, you will implement the following:
- The Login Page of the app.
- A page which lists all the to do tasks (the Listing page).
- Implement routing between the Login and the Listing pages.
By the end of this part of the development process, you will be able to run the application as shown in the animation below:
Let’s get started (or technically continue, since we started in the previous post).
Development of mobile applications generally requires two parts: the Backend and the Frontend. Of course, you could limit it only to the client-side, but if there is some data which must be stored on the server, there is no way to get around having a backend. In this series of articles, you will create a native mobile client-server application – a basic ToDo app. Backendless will take care of the backend, it gives you everything you might expecting from the server-side (user management, data persistence and scalability to name a few). And for the client side you will use the Dropsource service. In case if you are not familiar with this service, you can learn more about that from their website, but in short, it is an awesome service which lets you build native mobile apps without any coding. At the end of this series, your will have a native mobile application with the User Registration/Login screen, a screen with a listing of the ToDo items and a screen to create a new ToDo Item. Here’s a brief preview of the app along with real-time changes in the Backendless database:
Let’s go!
Today we will talk about how to monitor client’s Real-Time Connections in your Angular application. This tutorial continues the guide on how to build Angular apps with Backendless. It is recommended to check out the previous article in this series before you continue for the reason that we will use the application from the previous post as the starting point for this tutorial. Alternatively, if you just want to start working with the it right away, just download the source code from this GitHub commit.
In many cases we want to see how many application users are online or offline, for example, it might be useful in a chat application. For the demo purposes, in our application we will add a simple counter for count all connected clients. As we explore adding that functionality, you will meet with Backendless Business Logic, Backendless Counters, Codeless and keep discovering Real-Time features:
Great news, guys! Backendless 5 is now released and it’s time to show you some new features we’ve been working on. In this article we will talk about how to integrate the Backendless Real-Time Database into your Angular application. Meanwhile, you can check out the previous version of our Angular app in this post. In case you haven’t read the post and don’t have that app yet, please review the previous article, because we will use that application as a starting point for this tutorial. Or, if you just want to start working with the it right away, just download the source code from this GitHub commit.
Today we will talk about the integration of Backendless into your AngularJS/TypeScript app. You will create a simple Address Book application where all the application data will be stored in the Backendless mobile backend. The main goal of this article is to provide step-by-step instructions and to show how to create an Angular application with Backendless mBaaS.
