## Tooling setup CoreUI Angular Admin Templates uses [npm scripts](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scripts/) for its build system. Our `package.json` includes convenient methods for working with the framework, including compiling code, running tests, and more. To use our build system and run CoreUI admin template locally, you'll need the following: - `Node.js` with `npm` package manager, - Angular CLI, - a copy of CoreUI Angular Admin Template source files. Follow these steps and you should be ready to rock: 1. [Download and install Node.js](https://nodejs.org/), which we use to run scripts and manage our dependencies. 1. [Install the Angular CLI](https://angular.io/guide/setup-local#install-the-angular-cli), to perform a variety of ongoing development tasks such as testing, bundling, and deployment. 3. [Download CoreUI Angular Admin Template](https://coreui.io/product/free-angular-admin-template/) or [Download CoreUI PRO Angular Admin Template](https://coreui.io/download/). 4. **Install dependencies** - navigate to the root template directory and run `npm install` to pull local dependencies listed in `package.json`. When completed, you'll be able to run the various commands provided from the command line. ## Using npm scripts Our `package.json` includes numerous tasks for developing the project. Run `npm run` to see all the npm scripts in your terminal. **Primary tasks include:**

| Task | Description | | --- | --- | | `npm start` | Compiles CSS and JavaScript and starts a local dev server at [http://localhost:4200/](http://localhost:4200/) | | `npm run build` | Compiles CoreUI Angular application into `dist/` directory | | `npm test` | Runs tests locally |

## Local template Here's how to get it started: 1. Run through the tooling setup above to install all dependencies. 2. From the root template directory, run `npm start` in the command line. 3. Open [`http://localhost:4200`](http://localhost:4200) in your browser, and... voilà! ## Troubleshooting Should you encounter problems with installing dependencies, uninstall all previous dependency versions (global and local). In some cases it may require removing the whole `node_modules/` subdirectory. Then, run `npm install` again.
