Requires Bun as the JavaScript runtime to install dependencies and start the development server.

In plain English

This repository contains a complete example web application built with Angular, the web development framework maintained by Google. The app is a Medium-style blogging platform called Conduit: users can create accounts, write articles, comment on posts, follow other users, and favorite articles they like. It is not a product meant for public use but a reference application designed to show how a real Angular application is structured. The project is part of the RealWorld initiative, which is a project that specifies a standard API and a set of features for a blogging site so that many different front-end frameworks can build the same app and be compared side by side. This Angular version connects to a shared backend API and follows the Angular style guide for how to organize code, handle routing, authenticate users with tokens, and manage state. The codebase demonstrates features that most web applications need: logging in and out, creating and editing content, paginating lists of data, and showing different views based on who is logged in. It uses TypeScript, which is a version of JavaScript with type annotations that help catch errors before they run. To run it locally, you clone the repository and use Bun, a JavaScript runtime, to install dependencies and start a development server. A live demo is publicly available at the address listed in the README. This project is mainly useful for developers who are learning Angular or who want to see an idiomatic, reasonably complete example of an Angular application before starting their own. The README notes it may be too simple for understanding more advanced Angular patterns and points to a separate organization for more complex examples.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1

I'm learning Angular and cloned the RealWorld example app. Explain how the authentication flow works, from login form submission to storing the JWT and protecting routes.

Prompt 2

Show me how the Angular RealWorld app handles pagination for the article list, walk me through the component, service, and API call involved.

Prompt 3

I want to add a bookmarks page to the Angular RealWorld app showing saved articles. How should I structure the new component, route, and service following the existing patterns?

Prompt 4

How does the Angular RealWorld app manage global state like the current logged-in user, and how would I replace that with NgRx?
