To get started with development, you will need an up to date version of
node.js, git, and access to either the backend dev server, or a local running
copy of the backend server from [LocalLoop Server][LocalLoop-Server].

## Build
Run `ng build` to build the project; the resulting files will be stored in the `dist/` directory. Use the `-prod` flag for a production build.

# Old README
This is the old README with some minor tips on getting started, and more reading.
## Angular2DevelopmentCLI
This project was generated with [Angular CLI](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli) version 1.0.0-beta.32.3.
### Development server
Run `ng serve` for a dev server. Navigate to `http://localhost:4200/`. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
### Code scaffolding
Run `ng generate component component-name` to generate a new component. You can also use `ng generate directive/pipe/service/class/module`.
### Build
Run `ng build` to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the `dist/` directory. Use the `-prod` flag for a production build.
### Running unit tests
Run `ng test` to execute the unit tests via [Karma](https://karma-runner.github.io).
### Running end-to-end tests
Run `ng e2e` to execute the end-to-end tests via [Protractor](http://www.protractortest.org/).
Before running the tests make sure you are serving the app via `ng serve`.
### Further help
To get more help on the Angular CLI use `ng help` or go check out the [Angular CLI README](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/README.md).
