2017-11-06 13:02:18 -05:00
The _Tour of Heroes_ tutorial covers the fundamentals of Angular.
In this tutorial you will build an app that helps a staffing agency manage its stable of heroes.

This basic app has many of the features you'd expect to find in a data-driven application.
It acquires and displays a list of heroes, edits a selected hero's detail, and navigates among different views of heroic data.

By the end of the tutorial you will be able to do the following:
2017-11-06 13:02:18 -05:00
* Use built-in Angular directives to show and hide elements and display lists of hero data.
* Create Angular components to display hero details and show an array of heroes.
* Use one-way data binding for read-only data.
* Add editable fields to update a model with two-way data binding.
* Bind component methods to user events, like keystrokes and clicks.
* Enable users to select a hero from a master list and edit that hero in the details view.
* Format data with pipes.
* Create a shared service to assemble the heroes.
* Use routing to navigate among different views and their components.

You'll learn enough Angular to get started and gain confidence that
Angular can do whatever you need it to do.

After completing all tutorial steps, the final app will look like this <live-example name="toh-pt6"></live-example>.

## What you'll build
Here's a visual idea of where this tutorial leads, beginning with the "Dashboard"
view and the most heroic heroes:
docs(aio): image sweep (#16609) * fix(aio): allow code blocks to clear floated images Previously the negative margin on the code headings were causing floated images to overlay the start of a code block. Now all code block successfully clear all floated elements. * feat(aio): add a `.clear` class for clearing floating images * fix(aio): tidy up image styles The css rules for `img.right` and `img.left` allow authors easy access to floating an image on the left or right, respectively. The `.image-display` rule which was always found on a figure has been simplified so that all figures have this styling. It is very unlikely that a figure will be used outside the content area; and at this time it seems like `figure` is as good an indicator that we want this kind of styling as anything. Now that images are all tagged with width and height values, we cannot assume to modify these dimensions via CSS as it can cause the image to lose its correct proportions. Until we find a better solition we must set `height` to `auto` when the screen width is below 1300px to ensure that these images maintain their proportions as they get shrunk to fit. * docs(aio): general tidy up of image HTML in guides Previously, the guides have a lot of inline image styling and unnecessary use of the `image-display` css class. Images over 700px are problematic for guide docs, so those have been given specific widths and associated heights. * docs(aio): use correct anchor for "back to the top" link The `#toc` anchor does not work when the page is wide enough that the TOC is floating to the side. * build(aio): add `#top-of-page` to path variants for link checking Since the `#top-of-page` is outside the rendered docs the `checkAnchorLinks` processor doesn't find them as valid targets for links. Adding them as a `pathVariant` solves this problem but will still catch links to docs that do not actually exist. * fix(aio): ensure that headings clear floated images * fix(aio): do not force live-example embedded image to 100% size This made them look too big, generally. Leaving them with no size means that they will look reasonable in large viewports and switch to 100% width in narrow viewports.

You can click the two links above the dashboard ("Dashboard" and "Heroes")
to navigate between this Dashboard view and a Heroes view.
If you click the dashboard hero "Magneta," the router opens a "Hero Details" view
where you can change the hero's name.

Clicking the "Back" button returns you to the Dashboard.
Links at the top take you to either of the main views.
If you click "Heroes," the app displays the "Heroes" master list view.

When you click a different hero name, the read-only mini detail beneath the list reflects the new choice.
You can click the "View Details" button to drill into the
editable details of the selected hero.
The following diagram captures all of the navigation options.
