# Your First Project — Angular

## Create & serve

`ng new` scaffolds a new app; `ng serve` starts a live-reloading dev server.

```bash
ng new my-app
cd my-app
ng serve   # http://localhost:4200
```

## Project structure

`src/app` holds your components, `main.ts` bootstraps the app, `angular.json` configures the build, and `index.html` is the single HTML shell.

## Modern default

Since Angular 17, `ng new` scaffolds a **standalone**, NgModule-free app by default — that's what this course uses throughout.
