Provides fast, reliable and extensible starter for the development of Angular 2 projects.
angular2-seed
provides the following features:
- Allows you to painlessly update the seed tasks of your already existing project.
- Supports multiple Angular applications with shared codebase in a single instance of the seed.
- Ready to go, statically typed build system using gulp for working with TypeScript.
- Production and development builds.
- Ahead-of-Time compilation support.
- Sample unit tests with Jasmine and Karma including code coverage via istanbul.
- End-to-end tests with Protractor.
- Development server with Livereload.
- Following the best practices.
- Manager of your type definitions using typings.
- Has autoprefixer and css-lint support.
Note that this seed project requires node v4.x.x or higher and npm 2.14.7.
Here is how to speed-up the build on Windows.
In order to start the seed use:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mgechev/angular2-seed.git
cd angular2-seed
# install the project's dependencies
npm install
# watches your files and uses livereload by default
npm start
# api document for the app
# npm run build.docs
# dev build
npm run build.dev
# prod build
npm run build.prod
# prod build with AoT compilation
npm run build.prod.exp
# dev build of multiple applications (by default the value of --app is "app")
npm start -- --app baz
npm start -- --app foo
npm start -- --app bar
Does not rely on any global dependencies.

Default application server configuration
var PORT = 5555;
var LIVE_RELOAD_PORT = 4002;
var DOCS_PORT = 4003;
var APP_BASE = '/';
Configure at runtime
npm start -- --port 8080 --reload-port 4000 --base /my-app/
If you have different environments and you need to configure them to use different end points, settings, etc. you can use the files dev.ts
or prod.ts
in./tools/env/
. The name of the file is environment you want to use.
The environment can be specified by using:
npm start -- --config-env ENV_NAME
Currently the ENV_NAME
s are dev
, prod
, staging
, but you can simply add a different file "ENV_NAME.ts".
file in order to alter extra such environments.
A documentation of the provided tools can be found in tools/README.md.
Visit the Wiki page of the project.
npm test
# Development. Your app will be watched by karma
# on each change all your specs will be executed.
npm run test.watch
# NB: The command above might fail with a "EMFILE: too many open files" error.
# Some OS have a small limit of opened file descriptors (256) by default
# and will result in the EMFILE error.
# You can raise the maximum of file descriptors by running the command below:
ulimit -n 10480
# code coverage (istanbul)
# auto-generated at the end of `npm test`
# view coverage report:
npm run serve.coverage
# e2e (aka. end-to-end, integration) - In three different shell windows
# Make sure you don't have a global instance of Protractor
# npm install webdriver-manager <- Install this first for e2e testing
# npm run webdriver-update <- You will need to run this the first time
npm run webdriver-start
npm run serve.e2e
npm run e2e
# e2e live mode - Protractor interactive mode
# Instead of last command above, you can use:
npm run e2e.live
You can learn more about Protractor Interactive Mode here
Please see the CONTRIBUTING file for guidelines.
An advanced option to this seed exists here which mirrors the latest changes here but adds core support for:
- ngrx/store RxJS powered state management, inspired by Redux
- ng2-translate for i18n
- Usage is optional but on by default
- Up to you and your team how you want to utilize it. It can be easily removed if not needed.
- angulartics2 Vendor-agnostic analytics for Angular2 applications.
- Out of box support for Segment

- Out of box support for Segment
- lodash Helps reduce blocks of code down to single lines and enhances readability
- NativeScript cross platform mobile (w/ native UI) apps. Setup instructions here.
- Electron cross platform desktop apps (Mac, Windows and Linux). Setup instructions here.
You may use it to learn how to extend this seed for your own use cases or use the advanced seed if your project needs those features.
