MateenKadwaikar / Angular2-LearningTutorial

This repository provide a basic idea on how to work with Angular2 framework.

Angular 2 Learning Source

Prerequisites

Node.js and npm are essential to Angular 2 development.

Get it now if it's not already installed on your machine.

Verify that you are running at least node v5.x.x and npm 3.x.x by running node -v and npm -v in a terminal/console window. Older versions produce errors.

We recommend nvm for managing multiple versions of node and npm.

Create a new project based on the QuickStart

Clone this repo into new project folder (e.g., my-proj).

git clone  https://github.com/MateenKadwaikar/Angular2LearningTutorial.git  my-proj
cd my-proj

## Install npm packages

> See npm and nvm version notes above

Install the npm packages described in the `package.json` and verify that it works:

**Attention Windows Developers:  You must run all of these commands in administrator mode**.

```bash
npm install
npm start

If the typings folder doesn't show up after npm install please install them manually with:

npm run typings -- install

The npm start command first compiles the application, then simultaneously re-compiles and runs the lite-server. Both the compiler and the server watch for file changes.

Shut it down manually with Ctrl-C.

You're ready to write your application.

npm scripts

We've captured many of the most useful commands in npm scripts defined in the package.json:

• npm start - runs the compiler and a server at the same time, both in "watch mode".
• npm run tsc - runs the TypeScript compiler once.
• npm run tsc:w - runs the TypeScript compiler in watch mode; the process keeps running, awaiting changes to TypeScript files and re-compiling when it sees them.
• npm run lite - runs the lite-server, a light-weight, static file server, written and maintained by John Papa and Christopher Martin with excellent support for Angular apps that use routing.
• npm run typings - runs the typings tool.
• npm run postinstall - called by npm automatically after it successfully completes package installation. This script installs the TypeScript definition files this app requires. Here are the test related scripts:
• npm test - compiles, runs and watches the karma unit tests
• npm run e2e - run protractor e2e tests, written in JavaScript (*e2e-spec.js)

Shut it down manually with Ctrl-C.
