- Express.js: backend framework
- Angular 2+: frontend framework
- Node.js: runtime environment
Other tools and technologies used:
- Angular CLI: frontend scaffolding
- Bootstrap: layout and styles
- Font Awesome: icons
- JSON Web Token: user authentication
- Angular 2 JWT: JWT helper for Angular
- Bcrypt.js: password encryption
- Install Node.js and MongoDB
- Install Angular CLI:
npm i -g @angular/cli
- From project root folder install all the dependencies:
npm i
npm run dev
: concurrently execute MongoDB, Angular build, TypeScript compiler and Express server.
A window will automatically open at localhost:4200. Angular and Express files are being watched. Any change automatically creates a new bundle, restart Express server and reload your browser.
npm run prod
: run the project with a production bundle and AOT compilation listening at localhost:3000
- Go to Heroku and create a new app
- Install Heroku CLI
heroku login
cd my-project/
git init
heroku git:remote -a your-app-name
- Download this repo and copy all files into
my-project
folder - Edit
.gitignore
and remove line with/dist
- Edit
.env
and replace the MongoDB URI with a real remote MongoDB server. You can create a MongoDB server with Heroku or mLab. npm i
ng build -prod
orng build -aot -prod
tsc -p server
git add .
git commit -m "Going to Heroku"
git push heroku master
