A simpler and smaller Angular starter with ngLite

1. ng-lite-starter

   1 1 14 2.2 TypeScript

   Minimal starter for Angular projects

   

   Note: In the following sections, we'll take some time to understand the base application template and how it can be slimmed down for simpler projects. If you want to skip directly to the end result, you can use the command npx degit sinedied/ng-lite-starter my-app that will use this pre-made github template, but you'll miss all the fun 😉.

2. SurveyJS

3. ng-lite-todo

   2 1 6 2.8 TypeScript

   Todo-list app built with (minimal) Angular

   

   In the meantime, you can have a look at this todo list app built from expanding on that idea.

4. TypeScript

   3 1,476 107,133 9.5 TypeScript

   TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

   

   Next, we'll slim down a bit the number of files at the root of the project. You can see two tsconfig.json files there, used for TypeScript configuration. This separation may be useful when you want to use a different configuration for your tests, which is the case for the default setup created by ng new, but we don't need it here. Add these lines coming from tsconfig.app.json at the bottom of the tsconfig.json file:

5. node

   4 1,298 114,827 10.0 JavaScript

   Node.js JavaScript runtime ✨🐢🚀✨

   

   Make sure you have a recent Node.js runtime installed (at least v14), and let's start by installing the Angular CLI.

6. karma

   5 12 11,970 0.0 JavaScript

   Spectacular Test Runner for JavaScript

   

   While the default Angular starter includes unit tests, it makes use of the older and clunky Karma/Jasmine combo for unit testing.

7. jest

   6 537 45,219 9.4 TypeScript

   Delightful JavaScript Testing.

   

   When you need unit testing for your project, you can use the much better and faster testing framework Jest with our ngLite template by adding a few extra steps:

8. jasmine

   7 56 15,837 9.5 JavaScript

   Simple JavaScript testing framework for browsers and node.js

   

   While the default Angular starter includes unit tests, it makes use of the older and clunky Karma/Jasmine combo for unit testing.
