In this article, I ‘m going to give a basic introduction and the steps to project setup for Angular 5.

Now, we are going to create an application in Angular 5.

Firstly, you have to download the latest version of Node from https://nodejs.org

Then, we need to install the Angular CLI to our project.

Angular CLI

Angular CLI is a command line interface to scaffold and build Angular apps using node.js style modules.

To install the Angular CLI to your project, open the Visual Studio Command Prompt or Visual Studio Code and move to the project folder path.



Now, install the Angular CLI to your project. To install it, run the below command.

npm install @angular/cli –global

Then, wait for a few seconds until the Angular CLI is installed. Then, to create an Angular app by executing this command -

ng new ASPNETCOREDEMO --skip-install.

All the Angular file will be added to our project.

Once you are done, execute the ng-serve command.

Then, open the mentioned localhost URL in the browser.



Once you're done, everything will look good. I hope this will help you.
