An example application using AnguarJS/Bootstrap as frontend and Spring MVC as REST API producer.

##Requirements

• JDK 8

  Oracle Java 8 is required, go to Oracle Java website to download it and install into your system.

  Optionally, you can set JAVA_HOME environment variable and add <JDK installation dir>/bin in your PATH environment variable.

• Apache Maven

  Download the latest Apache Maven from http://maven.apache.org, and uncompress it into your local system.

  Optionally, you can set M2_HOME environment varible, and also do not forget to append <Maven Installation dir>/bin your PATH environment variable.

1. Clone the codes.

<pre>
git clone https://github.com/hantsy/angularjs-springmvc-sample
</pre>

2. And enter the root folder, run mvn tomcat7:run to start up an embedded tomcat7 to serve this application.

<pre>
mvn tomcat7:run
</pre>

3. Go to http://localhost:8080/angularjs-springmvc-sample/ to test it. If you want to explore the REST API docs online, there is a Swagger UI configured for visualizing the REST APIs, just go to http://localhost:8080/angularjs-springmvc-sample/swagger-ui.html.

If you are interested in Spring Boot, I have moved the boot branch into a new project angularjs-springmvc-sample-boot.
