Building a mean ap and angular js

Unless I am blind, why aren't these two courses part of the full stack tech degree curriculum? Or are they just named something else?

MEAN is MongoDB, Express.js, Angular.js, & Node.js. It included "Angular.js Basics (1.x)." The "Building a MEAN App" module is being removed from the Full Stack JavaScript track. The instructor who recorded this module of lessons doesn't work at Treehouse any longer. The lessons were filmed in 2015 when he was employed at Treehouse.

If you received a notice several months ago about changes in the Full Stack JavaScript track, you had the option to review the potential changes to the track before updating it. If you didn't view the changes before updating it, then you are now noticing that the "Building a MEAN App" module is no longer part of the Full Stack JavaScritpt track. You still have "Node.js Basics," "Express Basics," "Mongo Basics," "User Authentication with Express & Mongo," "Build a REST API with Express," & Build a Dynamic Site with Node.js" in the Full Stack JavaScript track now. A new lesson on "Angular 2.0 Basics" was released earlier this month, but it's not in the Full Stack JavaScript track.

I didn't take the Full Stack JavaScript Tech Degree track, so I don't know what the difference is between that track & the one I did. I suspect your track looked the same before the changes were implemented. I don't know why "Angular 2.0 Basics" wasn't included in your track, except for the timing of it's release was independent of the update to the track itself. Click on the "bell" for notifications on your Treehouse page in the upper right corner to see when "Angular 2.0 Basics" was released.
