A Minimalist Starter for Angular (v2+) libraries (w/ AOT support)

Overview

The Minimalist Angular Library Starter is designed for developers looking to quickly create and ship libraries for their Angular applications, particularly those utilizing Angular version 2 or newer. This starter kit provides the essential files and structure necessary to kickstart your project without the complexity of heavier frameworks, making it easier to focus on building your functionality.

With the fast-paced demands of software development, having a streamlined approach to developing libraries is crucial. This starter not only prepares you with the basic setup but encourages collaboration and contributions from the community, cementing a shared ownership of improvements and features.

Features

  • Minimal Configuration: This starter provides the bare essentials you need to create a library, allowing for straightforward development and integration with other projects.
  • Custom Typings Support: Easily include custom typings in your project using the custom-typings.d.ts file, ensuring that your library can accommodate your specific requirements.
  • Easy Integration: Incorporate your library into other projects using simple commands with Yarn or npm, making it seamless to utilize in existing Angular applications.
  • Open to Contributions: The project welcomes contributions, fostering an environment for developers to improve and extend the starter features collaboratively.
  • MIT License: The library is free to use, modify, and distribute, giving you the flexibility to adjust it according to your project's needs.
  • No Tests Included: While it sets the stage for library creation, it intentionally omits tests, encouraging developers to implement their testing strategies based on their specific use cases.
  • Angular CLI Compatibility: Currently, the starter is not compatible with Angular CLI, but it offers potential for future enhancements in this area.
