Who is it for

We have gotten a lot of positive feedback from folks using Angular Console. Developers on Mac and Windows, experts and beginners, developers with mainly backend experience, and those who write polyfills in their spare time, folks who are terminal shy, and those who develop using ed. Everyone agreed that it helps them be more productive with Angular CLI.

Beginner Friendly

We aim to make Angular Console a great tool for developers who are new to Angular or Angular CLI. If you get a new laptop and install Angular Console on it, you can build a full stack application with a Angular frontend without having to install anything else. Don’t have Node installed? Angular Console will help you set it up.

You can create projects, interact with your editor, run generators and commands, install extensions without ever touching the terminal or having to install any node packages globally. Also, Angular Console highlights the properties you are likely to use for build-in generators and commands. So if you haven’t used the CLI, you don’t get overwhelmed.

Useful to Experts

At the same time, Angular Console is a robust tool that can do everything the Angular CLI can do — it’s the UI for the CLI. Every command you can run in the terminal, you can run via Angular Console. Except you no longer have to remember all the flags, names, or paths — Angular Console will help you by providing autocompletion and validating your inputs.

We at Nrwl hire the best Angular developers, and most of us find Angular Console a great companion to the CLI and use it on the daily basis.
