Angular (web framework)
Angular is a web framework by Google which allows you to create progressive web apps (PWAs).
It can also be used to create native mobile or desktop apps.
Note: This page is about Angular, also known as Angular 2. For AngularJS, the predecessor to Angular, see https://angularjs.org/.
Getting Started
See Angular Guide Setup Local.
- Install NodeJS and npm
- Install the Angular CLI:
npm install -g @angular/cli
Usage
Components
Directives
Deployment
The basic idea is to do the following:
- Create a production build:
ng build --prod
- Copy the dist folder to the server.
- Redirect missing files to index.html.
Apache
Place the following in the apache config for your site or in an .htaccess file:
Rewrite Rules
RewriteEngine On
# If an existing asset or directory is requested go to it as it is
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
# If the requested resource doesn't exist, use index.html
RewriteRule ^ /index.html
