Chapter 3: Building a Twitter Client with Node and Angular

by Jeremy Wilken 

In this tutorial, we’re going to look at how to build a basic Twitter client with NodeJS, and an Angular application to display your home timeline of tweets. This is a rapid tour with things to consider while setting up your own Twitter client and Angular application.

First, we’re going to build a NodeJS server, which will handle communicating between the Twitter API and the Angular application. Then, we’ll build up the Angular application to display and interact with your Twitter timeline.

While you may be able to go through this tutorial without any prior NodeJS or Angular experience, I’ll assume some prior knowledge in the article.
