Ask HN: Non-trivial data intensive angularjs apps
5 points by ojbrien 3807 days ago
Hey,

I'd be really interested in reading the source code for some non-trivial AngularJS apps that dealt with large amounts of data. A lot of the open source applications/tutorials I've come across so far are pretty simple. Build a todo list, build a simple email app etc. I'd really appreciate anyone sharing any examples they had.

Thanks!

Can't really provide my own code, but I will say ng-repeat is heavy and resource intensive, because of the way it handles updates on digest, even though it checks for existing versions with a deep watch, and you probably want to implement pagination (see http://tech.small-improvements.com/2013/09/10/angularjs-perf...) or use something like quick-ng-repeat, possibly with server side rendering for the initial page to take advantage of server caching.
What do you mean by "large amounts" of data?
