Building web app with Wordpress on the backend and Angular 2 on the front

Yeah, I know, it's (probably) unusual stuff, but why not, since we're going to use REST API 😉

What I'm using

• SQlite3 (use whatever database you want, I just like when my repositories contain all building blocks)
• Wordpress 4.4.1
• Angular 2 (beta)
• Bootstrap, with custom color scheme

Wordpress configuration

• SQLite Integration https://wordpress.org/plugins/sqlite-integration/
• REST API https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/

SQLite plugin

• Download "SQLite Integration" plugin
• Copy the db.php file found in the sqlite-integratin plugin folder to wordpress/wp-content folder
• By default sqlite-integratin plugin will create folder wp-content/database and will put db there You can override it, by I don't see any reason why. It's fine as it is.
• No need to change wp-config-sample.php just rename it to wp-config.php
