Building an AngularJS App in Practice

There are plenty of AngularJS demos floating around but at this meetup we'll have two presentations about how AngularJS apps are being built in practice.

In the first presentation, James Wanga (from The Digital Self and HBO) will explain his opinionated re-think of the angular-seed (https://github.com/angular/angular-seed) skeleton for large applications. He'll cover his "convention over configuration" approach to organizing services, controllers, partials, filters and directives and speak about how to best integrate end-to-end and unit tests into his project skeleton.

Next, Eric Duran (from Lullabot) will demo how he built his first (impressive) AngularJS app, ChromeHAR (http://ericduran.github.com/chromeHAR/). ChromeHAR allows you to drag-and-drop HTTP archive files (http://www.softwareishard.com/blog/har-12-spec/) into a web app and view them as if you were in Chrome Dev Tools (https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/docs/overview).
