Can I upgrade this to Angular 4?

[sdomino]

@shikya we'd love to get up to date to the most recent version. It would be great too, to know how many people still use the older versions.

I wonder if we create separate repo's for nanobox-angular, nanobox-angular-2, and nanobox-angular-4 (or something)... or perhaps they are just branches.

Let me talk it out a bit with @sanderson and we'll come up with something. Then we'll create issues and reach back out to you. Thanks!

@shikya, sounds like, for these quickstarts, we're just going to try and maintain the newest version. So go ahead and updated it to Angular 4. Thanks! 👍

@sdomino in the app folder, I see the .js and .js.map files. I don't think those files are necessary to be uploaded to the repository since we have the .ts files. May I create a pull request for deleting those .js and .js.map in the app folder and add them in the .gitignore?
I believe it will make the repo cleaner..

I don't think you'd want for the quickstart app actually structure all that boilerplate files for you.

Rather, promote using angular-cli with nanobox to scaffold your app.

[sdomino]

@jonyeezs I'm not super familiar with angular-cli myself, but I think what your suggesting is probably the correct route.

A quickstart should be the result of creating a new project, that runs with Nanobox, following whatever "best practices" or using whatever tools exist for any given language/framework.

Ideally, the application would be configured to run locally with Nanobox, but also function as a good "starter" app for deploying to production with Nanobox as well.
