node -v
npm -v
npm install -g @angular/cli
ng help
ng new myapp
# routing? y# SCSScd myapp
ng serve -o

..index.html <-- here be the entry point <app-root>, but usually not doing work here
..styles.scss <-- global styles go here
app.component.ts
@Component({...}) is the component decorator, which is set up to connect to the component tag (e.g. <app-root>), the HTML file (e.g. app.component.html), and the CSS file (e.g. app.component.scss).
Routing
cd myapp
# ng generate component <component-name>, or just:
ng g c home
ng g c list
Keep <router-outlet></router-outlet> in HTML inside myapp/src/app/app.component.html.
= special components that are reusable throughout your app
cd myapp
# ng generate service <service-name>
ng g s http
Aside CSS note
.container {
display: flex; /* automatically fills up a row */;
flex-wrap: wrap; /* to automatically create new rows *//* to wrap columns instead, change flex-direction and make sure height is bounded: *//* flex-direction: column; *//* height: 100vh; */
}
Build for production (dist folder)
cd myapp
ng build --prod
To run the production build on a local server, you can try:
cd myapp
# (stop any other running local server)
npm i -g lite-server
cd dist/myapp
lite-server
