Angular project containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc).

This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged application built with Angular that interacts with an actual backend server including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.

Make sure you have the Angular CLI installed globally.

We use npm the default package manager of NodeJs & install the dependencies with npm install.

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Run npm run build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Or simply run the example using docker:

docker-compose up

Then navigate to `http://localhost:4200/

The example application is a social blogging site (i.e. a Medium.com clone). You can view a live demo over at http://hamidihamza.com/angular-forum/
