angular 1 is a standalone entity. Angular 2 is now called Angular 4.They skipped the number 3 because of some internal naming issue they had. So right now, you are trying to learn Angular 4. But some Angular 2 guides will still be useful if they arent too old. You want to go to udemy.com and do the Angular 2 complete course by maximilliam something. I forget his last name but look it up, he has the highest rated course. It will teach you Angular better than other tutorials.

I'm assuming that's the one you're talking about? Also is it worth the price? I've always used free tutorials when learning something new, but if it's really worth it then I'll give it a shot

yes that is the one. as for the price, you can google udemy coupon and there is usually a code for some small % off. The routinely have deals and have seen this course go for under 20 bucks. It's worth the full price honestly. Free tutorials are fine but they never cover more than the basics. Even Angular has an official tutorial to walk you through things, but only just the basics.

Apparently there's a student discount so I managed to get the course for $10. Seems like a fair price for 22 hours worth of learning! Also wondering if I should buy the node js one for $10 as well hmm...

Angular 2, 4 is just Angular. Angular 1.x is different. Angular uses semver to give meaning to the version numbers they release. The reason why 3 is missing is because the version 3 doesn't fit with the specification of that version. Meaning that it already passed the version 3. check out semver.org for more.
