angular 4 mean starter

This is a very neat and simple starter kit for an angular 4 MEAN SPA applications. Obviously this won't be perfect for every situation, but I found this really necessary to overcome the fear of the scary blank project and to discover some best practices on how to structure a project. Anyway it shouldn't be too hard to expand it to fit your needs.

Installation

  1. Clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/giacomocerquone/angular2-mean-starter.git
  2. cd into the folder of the repo you just cloned
  3. Install npm dependencies npm install
  4. Start a MongoDB instance
  5. You're ready to go, give npm run start to test the application

Built-in scripts

  • npm start - Launch development server of Angular Cli and server.js node app through nodemon for live restart
  • npm run build - Build the ng project into the dist folder. In production you will just start the server.js file
  • You can define other scripts in package.json based on the available commands provided by angular-cli

What's in here (the stack)

Back-end

  • Node.js (you don't say)
  • Express 4
  • Mongoose to handle MongoDB connections

Front-end

  • Angular 4 + Angular Material
  • Angular Cli
  • TypeScript

Development modules

  • Nodemon for live server restart
  • Concurrently for running and handling multiple npm packages
  • Morgan as logging library
  • Angular-cli to handle all the angular stuff

Contributions

I would be really happy to have some contributions, advices or anything else you can bring in to improve this starter.
