TLDRvia the TL;DR App

In this blog I will demonstrate deploying a Light-Weight Angular Data Management System in 3 steps. This small app was built to keep routine operations for a parking lot, but can be adjusted for any other storage or use case with the same workflow. Quite simple, but has enough to start with for sure! The app was built by Bhulat Kutliev for the Cosmic JS Community and was built on Node.js, Angular JS and Cosmic JS.

Install and manage your Angular Data Management System and all of its content from your Cosmic JS Bucket Dashboard. Simple. 😎 You can refer to the original tutorial below to build the app from scratch, or continue reading to simply deploy the Angular Data Management System in 3 Steps.

We’ll be using Cosmic JS to install our example app, deploy and make content updates moving forward. Cosmic JS is an API-first Content Management Platform that allows developers to build apps in any programming language while giving content editors a familiar content editor to manage dynamic content from the cloud. If you haven’t already, get started by Signing Up for Cosmic JS.

1. Create a New Bucket

Your bucket’s name is the name of your website, project, client or web application that you are building.

2. Install the Angular Data Management System

Cosmic JS gives you the ability to filter between programming languages such as Node.js, Vue.js, React, AngularJS and more.

Confirm App Installation

3. Deploy to Web

Navigate to “Deploy Web App” located underneath Settings in your left hand navigation bar in your Bucket Dashboard. I clicked “Deploy to Web”. I can then edit Objects while my web application is deploying. You will receive an email confirming the deployment of your web application. If you encounter any issues during deployment, you may be routed to the Cosmic JS Troubleshooting Page.

Confirm Deploy Location and Branch

I’m using the content-ready app from Bhulat Kutliev in the Cosmic JS Community, so I’ll use his Master Repo: https://github.com/cosmicjs/parkingcare

Now that your app is deployed to the Cosmic JS App Server, you’re free to completely manage your Angular Data Management System and all of its content from one place.
