Question

JavaScript

Is it possible to install Angular 4 without using node, npm, angular-cli? Just take and connect to the page using the tag <script>. I don’t understand why such a heap of technologies for simple use? Vaughn, connected, for example, JQuery via cdn and do not bother.

Answer 2

You can connect via script, but you need to install via npm

<script src="/node_modules/angular/angular.js"></script>
