Run Development

Run npm run start for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files. The command will run custom hooks which will set environment to development and merge all i18n files needed for multi language support. The application uses proxy file to connect with the API. Proxy settings are defined in proxy.conf.json

Build for production

Run npm run sy-build to build the application for production which includes tree shaking, AOT and other cool stuff for minification. This command is defined in package.json file under the scripts section and includes regular Angular CLI build command, custom made hooks and generation of service worker file.
