Highly Scalable Angular Folder Structure
The project is inspired by an article I wrote on Medium called How to define a highly scalable folder structure for your Angular project. The project is based on best practices from the community, other github Angular projects and my own experiences from working on several Angular projects.
Prerequisites
Before serving the project, you need to have Node version 8.9 and npm 5.5.1 or higher on your system. You can download the latest version of Node for your operating system on Node's official site.
If you already have Node and npm installed, verify their version by running:
$ node -v # => displays the node version
$ npm -v # => displays npm version
Once you have Node installed, you can use the npm command to install TypeScript:
$ npm install -g typescript
You don’t technically need TypeScript, but it’s highly recommended by the Angular team, so I recommend you install it to make working with Angular as comfortable as possible.
Now that you have Node, npm and TypeScript installed, you can install the angular cli by running:
$ npm install -g @angular/cli
Installing
You can install the projects dependencies by running
$ npm install
Development server
Run npm run start for a dev server. The project will serve with the proxy a proxy flag by default. The proxy will highjack certain URLs, and send them to a specified backend server. You can avoid starting the project with proxy support by running ng serve instead.
Scripts
npm start -> Run dev. server on http://localhost:4200/ npm run build -> Lint code and build app for production in dist folder npm run test -> Run unit tests via Karma in watch mode npm test:ci -> Lint code and run unit tests once for continuous integration npm run e2e -> Run e2e tests using Protractor npm run lint -> Lint code
