All the introductory stuff for AngularJS I've seen so far is "client-side" - auto-updating bindings, the ToDo list etc.
Is there a similarly pitched tutorial about how to persist this back to a server, or how to write an API service that interacts best with the AngularJS model? Nothing in the list of video titles suggests that kind of help.
Angular is agnostic of the back-end. Just use the $http service to read/write async from the server. The angular model is whatever your model is - there are no restrictions
I understand that, but an application isn't an island; presumably a server that speaks JSON is easiest to deal with, and there are probably a number of gotchas on "how best to build a backend that works the way AngularJS works well". I've not found anything like that yet and I'd love someone to point me to it.
OK I get you. The angular-app [1] is a full stack app with angular front-end, node back-end. It's not a walkthrough but you could certainly read through the code
I've run across a number of tutorials that persist through a simple PHP-based REST API. What I haven't seen, but would very much like to, is one that includes authentication.
