Questions about running Yarn

[anthony.oak.castro]

Hey @JosephN,

Just to add to what @rsp said, and reply to your second question.

@JosephN

When yarn creates the “dist” folder is this new folder supposed to replace /suitecrm/public/dist folder or does it continue to reside in the “/suitecrm/dist/” folder?

1. The /suitecrm/dist/ is not the same as /suitecrm/public/dist

   • /suitecrm/dist/ contains the output of running:
     • yarn build:common
     • yarn build:core
   • /suitecrm/public/dist contains the output of running:
     • yarn build:shell

2. The output paths the above are defined in angular.json

3. You only need /suitecrm/dist/ for building /suitecrm/public/dist

4. Depending on what you are doing please consider using the dev package, it already includes the dist folder

How can I have my local development compile?

Hello Everyone, I am new to Suitecrm. I downloaded the code and intend to try to edit a few things. I have been able to get the application running locally but I am unable to have the application compile after I save on the frontend. I can only see my changes after I build the application. Which is not efficient for development. Can anyone tell me how to achieve this?

Suitecrm8 npm run start or ng serve

Hello everyone! Does anybody try to run angular front-end as any developer angular project? For example running npm run start or ng serve ? as the setup guide of angular recommends? Thanks!
