(Re)-run npm install -g @angular/cli to make sure the ng command is up to date.

Aside: You can run np help to get a list of available commands for the Angular CLI tool.

node -v
npm -v
npm install -g @angular/cli
ng help
ng new myapp
# routing? y
# SCSS
cd myapp
ng serve -o
# automatically opens and hot-reloads http://localhost:4200

# Control+C
ng build --prod

myapp
  e2e
  node_modules
  src
    app <-- you'll spend most of your time here on components and routing
    ..app.component.ts <-- main heart component
    assets
    environments
    ..index.html <-- here be the entry point <app-root>, but usually not doing work here
    ..styles.scss <-- global styles go here

@Component({...}) is the component decorator, which is set up to connect to the component tag (e.g. <app-root>), the HTML file (e.g. app.component.html), and the CSS file (e.g. app.component.scss).

cd myapp
# ng generate component <component-name>, or just:
ng g c home
ng g c list

Keep <router-outlet></router-outlet> in HTML inside myapp/src/app/app.component.html.

ng g c <component-name> generates 4 files:

.ts      = brain
.html    = structure
.scss    = style
.spec.ts = test

= special components that are reusable throughout your app

cd myapp
# ng generate service <service-name>
ng g s http

.container {
  display: flex; /* automatically fills up a row */;
  flex-wrap: wrap; /* to automatically create new rows */
  /* to wrap columns instead, change flex-direction and make sure height is bounded: */
  /* flex-direction: column; */
  /* height: 100vh; */
}

cd myapp
ng build --prod

To run the production build on a local server, you can try:

cd myapp
# (stop any other running local server)
npm i -g lite-server
cd dist/myapp
lite-server
