It took me ages to build a framework for Angular. Now that I've built it I can quickly create new apps based on the previous app, but I would hate to be back at newbie stage tried to build it again. So many moving parts. At least I can still integrate with existing code. Deployment is relatively easy in my opinion.
I built my app from scratch, transitioned to javascript services and webpack, and it is only months ago that visual studio got a decent angular 2 template built in. Even now it doesn't come with a security model built in. I added forms authentication but that wasn't trivial. My boss asked me to give him a document worth all the steps and it was 31 large steps. So it's a struggle, but I have an app that looks awesome. Draggable tiles, charts, grids, responsiveness, async loading, breadcrumbs, maps, etc On 21 Nov 2017 5:50 PM, "Greg Low" <[email protected]> wrote: > But when a business just wants a line of business app, are these good > answers now?
