This application was generated using JHipster 3.9.1 for the backend only. We use the template ng2-admin for the front end.

From your IDE, right-click on the “Application” class at the root of your Java package hierarchy, and run it directly. You should also be able to debug it as easily.

The application will be available on http://localhost:8080.

Before you can build this project, you must install and configure the following dependencies on your machine:

1. [Node.js][]: We use Node to run a development web server and build the project. Depending on your system, you can install Node either from source or as a pre-packaged bundle.

After installing Node, you should be able to run the following command to install development tools. You will only need to run this command when dependencies change in package.json.

npm install

Run the following commands in two separate terminals to create a blissful development experience where your browser auto-refreshes when files change on your hard drive.

npm start

NPM is used to manage CSS and JavaScript dependencies used in this application. You can upgrade dependencies by specifying a newer version in package.json.

To optimize the bis application for production, run:

mvn -Pprod clean package

This will concatenate and minify the client CSS and compile TypeScript files. It will also modify index.html so it references these new files. To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar target/*.war

Then navigate to http://localhost:8080 in your browser.
