Quick Start: AngularJS SPA and NodeJS

This repository was created with the intention of simplifying the start up time of a AngularJS single page application running on NodeJS server.

Project was initialized through the use of Express Generator.

After running express generator, changes were made to implement Angular SPA, resulting in the following file structure:

app.js
routes/
--- api.js
bin/
--- www
public/
--- app/
------ app.js
------ controllers/
--------- controller.js
------ directives/
--------- directive.js
------ services/
--------- service.js
------ views/
--------- index.html
--------- templates/
------------ template.tpl.html
--- js/
------ custom.js
--- styles/
------ custom.css
--- vendor/
------ angular-1.6.6/
------ bootstrap-3.3.7/
package.json
