To get started, make sure you have [Node](https://nodejs.org) installed. Then follow these steps: 1. `git clone https://github.com/openaccounting/oa-web.git` 2. `cd oa-web` 3. `npm install` ## Development server Run `ng serve` for a dev server. Navigate to `http://localhost:4200/`. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files. ## Build Run `ng build` to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the `dist/` directory.
