Angular Express Seed With HTML

This is an Angular / Express seed project is which adapted from Brian Ford's Angular Socket.io Seed (https://github.com/btford/angular-socket-io-seed). Credit also goes to Mr. Ford for the intro and how to use sections of this readme.

Instead of using the Jade templating engine; however, this seed uses HTML for markup.

Intro

Start an awesome app with AngularJS on the front, Socket.io + Express + Node on the back. This project is an application skeleton for writing AngularJS apps that use web sockets to add real-time functionality. If you're not planning on using web sockets, you should consider the Angular Express Seed instead.

The seed contains angular libraries, test libraries and a bunch of scripts all preconfigured for instant web development gratification. Just clone the repo (or download the zip/tarball) and you're ready to develop your application.

The seed app shows how to wire together Angular client-side components with Socket.io and Express on the server

How to use it

Clone the angular-socket-io-seed repository and start hacking!

Running the app

Runs like a typical express app:

node app.js
