$ cd event-app
$ npm install
$ ng serveNavigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build.
Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.
This is not a full suite of unit test. It should show 10 successful tests and 0 errors.
Run npm run compodoc to generate it.
Run compodoc -s -r 4201 and navigate to http://127.0.0.1:4201, it will show all the app documentation.
This project was built with Angular and Typescript. There is no specific reason why I chose Angular over other JS framework, I could say I feel more comfortable since I have been working with it around 4 years. It brings me all I need to develop an app such as http, router and form modules, and runs really fast. React or other JS framework handles the modules in a different way, adding them when it's needed, and it's easier to create a single component.
No bootstrap or other CSS libraries is used in this project, CSS with SCSS only. I copied some CSS from internet to make it faster like the loading and a few others. Mapbox is pretty decent, beautiful library and open source.
Mapbox is using OpenStreetMap which also it's open source. I think it's enough reason to choose this technology over Google Maps.
