Why Angular Express?

When working with clients I often found myself setting up the same boilerplate over and over again.

Full stack boilerplates are awesome, but in reality I found myself stripping or customizing a lot of the generated boilerplate.

I wanted something different that worked from the ground up: first initialize a boilerplate and then add small components on top of that.

With Angular Express you do just that:

  • you initialize a project using ngx init
  • you add features to a project using ngx install

I also wanted something that leverages GitHub directly without having to publicly publish boilerplates or components to a registry like Bower or NPM.

With Angular Express, you can simply use any GitHub repository as a boilerplate or a component.

No need to waste valuable registry names.
