SketchBeamer
HTML editor with live preview. It features dynamic loading of angular components.
What does it mean?
It means that you can create declare your Angular modules as inputs of SketchBeamer and build HTML pages with your Angular components inside, without the need to setup a development environment!
Why would I need it?
If you're building a library with Angular, with SketchBeamer you can deploy a web app to let people play with your library. For example, if your library is a ui kit, it would let people without a technical background (as designers) to build quick prototypes with only a browser.
May I take a quick look?
There is a running demo here.
The demo web app depends on a CardModule containing a sb-card component that you can add to the HTML source.
Installation
Run npm run serve for a development server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Usage
In your angular app, add the sb-sketch component.
...
<sb-sketch [modules]="myModules"></sb-sketch>
...Declare your modules as inputs:
...
modules = [
CardModule
];
...You can use the emmet notation when editing the HTML source.
