Meaniscule

Meaniscule = miniscule + MEAN stack generator

Meaniscule is a basic MEAN stack wireframe for quickstarting your ideas.

Meansicule focuses on only providing the bare minimum framework to get you up and running quickly in a MEAN stack environment.

Use it for:

• mini apps
• brainstorming/proof-of-concept
• sandboxing early new features

Meaniscule owes a heavy debt to fsg, which offers a more robust environment with features like auth built right in.

Installing Meaniscule

Install Meaniscule globally:

npm install -g meaniscule

Generating your Meaniscule app

The global installation gives you access to the terminal command meaniscule:

mkdir my-app && cd my-app
meaniscule

The meaniscule command will populate the directory my-app with the newly generated app.

Initial building tasks

After generating the app, run:

npm i && bower i
npm start

In a separate terminal tab, run:

gulp seedDB
gulp

The default gulp process builds all client-side JS and Sass files, and then watches them for changes, rebuilding on the fly.
