Angular for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications

Setting Up Your Development Environment

This chapter demonstrates how you and your team members can create a consistent development environment so that your entire team has the same great web development experience – the importance of which is highlighted in the preface of the book. It can be tough for beginners to create the right development environment, which is essential for a frustration-free development experience. For seasoned developers and teams, achieving a consistent and minimal development environment remains a challenge. Once achieved, such a development environment helps avoid many IT-related issues, including ongoing maintenance, licensing, and upgrade costs.

Instructions on installing GitHub Desktop, Node.js, the Angular CLI, and Docker are a useful reference for those from absolute beginners to seasoned teams, along with strategies for how to automate and ensure the correct and consistent configuration of your development environment.

Feel free to skip this chapter if you already have a robust development environment set up; however, beware that some of the environmental assumptions declared in this chapter may result in some instructions not working for you in later chapters. Come back to this chapter as a reference if you run into issues or need to help a colleague, pupil, or friend to set up their development environment. Automated installation scripts to set up your development environment can be found at https://github.com/duluca/web-dev-environment-setup.

To make the most of this book, you should be familiar with JavaScript ES2015+, frontend development basics, and RESTful APIs.

The recommended operating systems are Windows 10 Pro v1903+ with PowerShell v7+, or macOS Sierra v10.15+ with Terminal (Bash or Oh My Zsh). Most of the suggested software in this book also works on Linux systems, but your experience may vary depending on your particular setup.

It is standard practice for developers to use Google Chrome 80+ when developing web applications. However, you may also use the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser 80+. You should definitely install the cross-platform PowerShell on Windows from https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases, which gives you access to chain operators && and ||. Additionally, get the new Windows Terminal from the Microsoft Store for a superior command-line experience on Windows.

In this chapter, you are going to learn how to do the following:

Work with the CLI package managers Chocolatey and Homebrew to install and update software
Use those package managers to install GitHub, Node.js, and other essential programs
Use scripting to automate installation using PowerShell or Bash
Generate an Angular application using the Angular CLI
Achieve a consistent and cross-platform development environment using automated tools

Let's start by learning about CLI-based package managers that you can use to install your development tools. In the next section, you'll see that using CLI tools is a superior method compared to dealing with individual installers. It is much easier to automate CLI tools, which makes setup and maintenance tasks repeatable and fast.

CLI package managers

Installing software through a Graphical User Interface (GUI) is slow and challenging to automate. As a full-stack developer, whether you're a Windows or a Mac user, you must rely on Command-Line Interface (CLI) package managers to efficiently install and configure the software you depend on.

Remember, anything that can be expressed as a CLI command can also be automated.

Installing Chocolatey for Windows

Chocolatey is a CLI-based package manager for Windows that can be used for automated software installation. To install Chocolatey on Windows, you need to run an elevated command shell:

Launch the Start menu
Start typing in PowerShell
You should see Windows PowerShell Desktop App as a search result
Right-click on Windows PowerShell and select Run as Administrator
This triggers a User Account Control (UAC) warning; select Yes to continue

Execute the install command found at https://chocolatey.org/install in PowerShell to install the Chocolatey package manager:

PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

Verify your Chocolatey installation by executing choco
You should see a similar output to the one shown in the following screenshot:

Figure 2.1: Successful installation of Chocolatey

All subsequent Chocolatey commands must also be executed from an elevated command shell. Alternatively, it is possible to install Chocolatey in a non-administrator setting that doesn't require an elevated command shell. However, this results in a non-standard and less secure development environment, and certain applications installed through the tool may still require elevation.

Scoop is an alternative to Chocolatey that provides a more Unix-like experience. If you prefer Unix-style tools and commands, you can install Scoop at https://scoop.sh/ or by executing:

$ iwr -useb get.scoop.sh | iex

For more information on Chocolatey, refer to https://chocolatey.org/install.

Installing Homebrew for macOS

Homebrew is a CLI-based package manager for macOS that can be used for automated software installation. To install Homebrew on macOS, you need to run a command shell:

Launch Spotlight Search with + Space
Type in terminal

Execute the following command in Terminal to install the Homebrew package manager:

$ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Verify your Homebrew installation by executing brew
You should see a similar output to the following:

Figure 2.2: Successful installation of Homebrew

To enable access to additional software, execute the following command:
```
$ brew tap caskroom/cask
```

On macOS, if you run into permissions issues while installing brew packages, related to chown'ing /usr/local, you need to execute the sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(brew --prefix)/* command. This command reinstates user-level ownership to brew packages, which is more secure than broad superuser/su-level access.

For more information, check out https://brew.sh/.

Alex Hoffman Jul 01, 2020

I received a copy of this book from a friend and have been very impressed with its usefulness so far. As a lead developer with 6 years of Angular expertise I have already found quite a few sections both interesting and useful like the part about how to use git submodules and the section on how to implement JWTs in an Angular application. If your are more experienced I wouldn't be afraid to jump around to the sections you need as I was able to do so with out reading everything up until those points. This is has already been a great resource to go back to when developing and Im looking forward to continuing to use it in the future.Additionally, I looked over a few of the intro sections and think that it does a really good job of introducing the basics of Angular. Ive already recommended it to a couple of my junior developers as it really good job covering skills that I think are important to helping junior developers thrive such as setting up proper visual studio code extensions, what unit testing is and how to do it, and how to approach and handle the sometimes tricky subject of observables.Overall I was very impressed with this book and think that it has something to offer for all skill levels.

Excellent tour through best practices in Angular development. The built in patterns in Angular automatically inform and mirror best practices for server side. I find it refreshing to be able to follow a similar train of thought between server and front end. Great book for experienced developers looking to dive into Angular applications.

Amazon Customer Apr 21, 2022

I'm a recently retired Software Developer with 37 years experience. I've spent tens of thousands of dollars on texts. This book is written by a knowledgeable, experienced developer who's first language is probably English. I recently purchased several other books on this topic and they pale in comparison. I appreciate the effort the authors and editors put into this book. It is one I will keep on my "reference" shelf.

Tom Eustace Feb 03, 2022

There is a lot of good content in this book which will appeal to beginners and more advanced users. The recommendations are always pragmatic and will serve people getting started with Angular well. The recommendation to keep dependencies and tooling simple is always refreshing as it will make upgrading and maintaining applications easier.Do your research first before adopting dependencies and tooling as things change quickly and there may be better alternatives at time of reading.
