How to Run Angular Project Downloaded from GitHub

Introduction to Running Angular Projects from GitHub

Downloading and running an Angular project from GitHub can seem challenging for beginners, but with the right steps, it becomes a straightforward process. This tutorial will guide you through every stage of setting up and running an Angular project locally.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js installed on your computer
  • npm (Node Package Manager)
  • Angular CLI
  • Visual Studio Code (recommended)

Step-by-Step Setup Process

1. Clone the GitHub Repository

Use Git commands to clone the repository to your local machine. You can do this by copying the repository's HTTPS or SSH link and using the git clone command in your terminal.

2. Install Dependencies

Navigate to the project directory and run 'npm install' to download and install all project dependencies. This command reads the package.json file and installs necessary packages.

3. Run the Project

Use Angular CLI command 'ng serve -o' to start the development server. The '-o' flag automatically opens the project in your default browser.
