This project is not maintained anymore, and Angular has made PWA support much easier in V6. Check this guide: https://pwa.ng/
Lightweight starter 'ng new' with added app shell features (sw-precache, web app manifest).
Based on the excellent article by Houssein Djirdeh on PWAs. Check out his working PWA for hackernews here: https://github.com/housseindjirdeh/angular2-hn. Huge kudos!
4+ versions of Angular are likely to incorporate all of these features. Until then, this is intended to be an upgraded ng new <project-name>.
This is without ng eject! Ejecting the webpack config provides with much deeper customisation, but that is not the scope of this starter kit.
# ng -v
