Red Academy - starter for Mars Project v03.0

Red Academy Angular Project Starter

(formerly the Tour of Heroes to Mars (3rd rendition) )

The repository builds upon the most current (and stable) version of Angular 2.x .

Verify that you are running at least node v4.x.x and npm 3.x.x by running node -v and npm -v in a terminal/console window. Older versions produce errors.

Create a new project based on this repo

Clone this repo into new project folder (e.g., RA-Angular2Project).

git clone  https://github.com/eapostol/ra-base-mars-repo-03.git  RA-Angular2Project
cd RA-Angular2Project

We have no intention of updating the source on my REPO. eapostol/ra-base-mars-repo-03. Discard everything "git-like" by deleting the .git folder.

rm -rf .git  # non-Windows
rd .git /S/Q # windows

Create a new git repo

You could start writing code now and throw it all away when you're done. If you'd rather preserve your work under source control, consider taking the following steps.

Initialize this project as a local git repo and make the first commit:

git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"

Create a remote repository for this project on the service of your choice.

Copy its address (e.g. https://github.com/<my-org>/RA-Angular2Project.git) and push the local repo to the remote. ( where <> is your github account, like mine is eapostol)

git remote add origin <repo-address>
git push -u origin master

So - First , 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 your console administrator mode.

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 Angular2 Project!
