Install Dependencies

Clone the repository and install the root workspace dependencies:

npm i

Run the Playground

Start the demo API in one terminal:

npm run server

The API listens on http://localhost:5100.

Start the Angular playground in another terminal:

npm start

Open http://localhost:4200 and use the browser network tools to inspect the hypermedia responses and the requests derived from their links and actions.

Build and Verify the Library

Build the Angular library:

npm run build

Run the complete headless test suite with coverage:

npm run test

Run linting:

npm run lint

Work on the Documentation

The documentation website has its own dependencies. Install and start it from the doc directory:

cd doc
npm i
npm start

Create a production documentation build with:

cd doc
npm run build

Real-World Sample

The Fancy.ResourceLinker.Sample project demonstrates end-to-end hypermedia usage with Angular and a .NET backend.
