To get you started you can simply clone the repository and install the dependencies:
We also use a number of Node.js tools to initialize and test angular-seed
. You must have Node.js
and its package manager (npm) installed.
We have preconfigured npm
to automatically run bower
so we can simply do:
npm install
Behind the scenes this will also call bower install
. After that, you should find out that you have
two new folders in your project.
node_modules
- contains the npm packages for the tools we needapp/bower_components
- contains the Angular framework files
Note that the bower_components
folder would normally be installed in the root folder but
Angular commit watcher
changes this location through the .bowerrc
file. Putting it in the app
folder
makes it easier to serve the files by a web server.
We have preconfigured the project with a simple development web server. The simplest way to start this server is:
npm start
Now browse to the app at [localhost:8000/index.html
][local-app-url].
