Dave has been programming for 30 years both in the .net and JavaScript spaces, and has been working with Angular since it first came out. They talk about the inspiration for writing this post, config.json, and APP_INITIALIZER. They also touch on optimizing, if he ever worked with Angular.js, and more!
