./src/ Directory

This is where the majority of development work will occur. It contains all of the application code, tests, and assets.

src/
  |- app/
  |- assets/
  |- index.html
  • src/app/ - contains all of the application code and corresponding tests
  • src/assets/ - static files like fonts and images
  • src/index.html - this is the HTML document of the single-page application

index.html

The index file is the HTML document of the single-page application (SPA). This is the highest level container for everything in your angular application.

<html>

The application module (orderCloud) and application controller (AppCtrl) are both loaded on the <html> element. We use the controllerAs syntax, so keep in mind that anything attached to the AppCtrl view model is accessible under the name application in all of your template files.

<head>

Within the <head> element there are some basic <meta> tags and a dynamic <title> tag which takes advantage of ui-router's $state service and the appname constant. You can see how we are referencing the AppCtrl via the controllerAs syntax below:

//dynamic application title

<title ng-bind="application.$state.current.data.pageTitle + (application.$state.current.data.pageTitle ? ' | ' : '') + application.name()">
    OrderCloud
</title>

After the <title>, there are some very important comments that are used to dynamically set the base[href] attribute and inject reference bower and application CSS styles during the gulp build and compile.

At the end of the <head> you will find the link for the OrderCloud favicon.

<body>

The body element contains the ui-view in which all other application templates will be loaded. Within the <ui-view> element we've placed the HTML used by cg-busy to display a loading indicator while angular bootstraps itself.

At the end of the body we again have some important comment markup that is used to dynamically inject all of the bower and application javascript files.
