thecavalierdani

Front-End application for CavalierDaily.com. Built on NodeJS, ExpressJS, and AngularJS.

Getting started

• install NodeJS
• install npm (Node Package Manager)
• install bower

Installing the packages

run npm install and bower install

Setting up the environment

Create a file called env.json in your root folder that looks like this

{
	"ENV":  "DEV",
	"PORT": "5000"
}

yeah, that's all for now. We'll be adding more stuff once the app actually makes back-end API requests.

Getting everything going

You'll need to run two commands at once to get a development environment running. In one terminal window, run gulp default to regenerate public/ files and run a watch for front-end changes. In the other window, run node app to start the actual server. Then go to localhost:5000/ in your browser.
