Angular is a TypeScript based framework that works in synchronization with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. To work with angular, domain knowledge of these 3 is required.
- Installing Node.js and npm
- Installing Angular CLI
- Creating workspace
- Deploying your First App
In this article, you will get to know about the Angular Environment setup process. After reading this article, you will be able to install, setup, create, and launch your own application in Angular. So let’s start!!!
Install Angular in Easy Steps
For Installing Angular on your Machine, there are 2 prerequisites:
- Node.js
- npm Package Manager
Node.js
First you need to have Node.js installed as Angular require current, active LTS or maintenance LTS version of Node.js
Download and Install Node.js version suitable for your machine’s operating system.
Npm Package Manager
Angular, Angular CLI and Angular applications are dependent on npm packages. By installing Node.js, you have automatically installed the npm Package manager which will be the base for installing angular in your system. To check the presence of npm client and Angular version check of npm client, run this command:
- npm -v
Installing Angular CLI
- Open Terminal/Command Prompt
- To install Angular CLI, run the below command:
- npm install -g @angular/cli
· After executing the command, Angular CLI will get installed within some time. You can check it using the following command
- ng --version
Workspace Creation
Now as your Angular CLI is installed, you need to create a workspace to work upon your application. Methods for it are:
- Using CLI
- Using Visual Studio Code
1. Using CLI
To create a workspace:
- Navigate to the desired directory where you want to create your workspace using cd command in the Terminal/Command prompt
- Then in the directory write this command on your terminal and provide the name of the app which you want to create. In my case I have mentioned DataFlair:
- Ng new YourAppName
- After running this command, it will prompt you to select from various options about the CSS and other functionalities.
- To leave everything to default, simply press the Enter or the Return key.
