It hasn't been fully tested in production and since it's in active development, implementation and interface details are likely to change.\n\n[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/JonAbrams/synth.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/JonAbrams/synth)\n[![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/JonAbrams/synth.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/JonAbrams/synth)\n\n_Synth_ is an API-first web app framework (built on NodeJS) that provides the following features:\n\n- Easily create new RESTful API resources by just creating folders and naming functions a certain way.\n- Preload angular model data on page load (saving an extra roundtrip).\n- Preload html view on page load (saving another extra roundtrip!)\n- A simplified project structure where front-end code (angular code, html, css, bower packages, etc) is in the 'front' folder and back-end code (node code and node packages) are in the 'back' folder.\n- A command-line tool for installing third party packages, using npm + bower, that auto-updates manifest files.\n- Auto compilation of assets on request for dev, and pre-compilation for prod (including minification and ng-annotate).\n- Auto-restarts the server when changes are detected.\n- Support for various back-end and front-end templates to help get a new project going quickly.\n\n## Documentation + Tutorial\n\nFor complete up-to-date documentation, tutorials, and example apps, check out ~~synthjs.com~~.\n\n## Components\n\nWhile Synth is an opinionated framework that provides everything you need to make a great web app, parts of it are available to be used by existing web apps:\n\n- [synth-api](https://github.com/JonAbrams/synth-api) – Easily generate a back-end JSON API for Express based on your app's directory structure.\n- [synth-di](https://github.com/JonAbrams/synth-di) – The dependency-injection library used by synth-api.\n- [apiPrefetch.js](https://github.com/JonAbrams/apiPrefetch.js) - Used to take advantage of api prefetching on the front-end.\n- [heroku-buildpack-synth](https://github.com/JonAbrams/heroku-buildpack-synth) - Use this buildpack to easily deploy Synth apps on Heroku or other compatible cloud hosting platforms.\n\n## Sample App\n\nBlurbs ~~Live Demo~~ - [Source](https://github.com/JonAbrams/synth-example-blurbs)\n\n## License\n\n[MIT](https://github.com/JonAbrams/synth/blob/master/LICENSE)\n\n## Credit\n\n- This project was created by Jon Abrams (~~Twitter~~ | [Blue Sky](https://bsky.app/profile/jonabrams.com) | [GitHub](https://github.com/JonAbrams)).\n- Thanks to [Katie Lefevre](https://github.com/ktel1218) for the logo.\n- Thanks to Stephen Ausman (aka [stackd](https://github.com/stackd)) for handing over control of the 'synth' package on NPM.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FJonAbrams%2Fsynth","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FJonAbrams%2Fsynth","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FJonAbrams%2Fsynth/lists"}
