Features

  • Best Practice Structure: Follows recommended best practice project structure for AngularJS, ensuring your project is organized efficiently from the start.
  • File Concatenation: All JavaScript files in the app folder are concatenated into a single build/app.js file, simplifying your project management.
  • HTML Compilation: Compiles all HTML files (except index.html) into build/templates.js, preloading templates into the Angular templateCache for faster rendering.
  • CSS Management: Concatenates all CSS files into build/app.css, maintaining a clean and manageable style architecture.
  • Library Bundling: Consolidates all JS and CSS files from the bower_components folder into build/lib.js and build/lib.css respectively, keeping dependencies organized.
  • Live Reload: Runs a static server on port 9000 with live reload support; anytime a file changes, the browser refreshes automatically to reflect modifications.
  • Automatic Testing: Integrates with Karma test runner, automatically running unit tests whenever relevant files change, facilitating continuous testing during development.
  • Easy Setup: Simple command line instructions to get started—setting up your app folder and installing necessary dependencies has never been easier.
