Hi,

I have number of questions about the new structure of the application.Hope you'll give the feedback.

Q 1 : Can you tell me how to open the both Client and Server solutions on the same Visual studio 2015 (by using one VS instance) IDE ? I would like to have detailed description here.Such as Do I need to create a new folder on the Host project or etc...

Q 2 : What are the steps which we have to follow to publish the application ? Can I publish both client and server at once (using normal publish option on VS) ? Let's say I need to publish it into Azure environment.
Note : I assume both solutions are on the same VS 2015 instance here.

    Hi sampath,

    Excellent work man, Also

    • Is it possible to group client in a folder (app folder e.x) rather than add it's content in the root?

    • If we keep two solutions (client & server) what is the easiest steps to publish to Azure?

    • Do you have any recommendations (deployment script & steps) for configure Azure continues integration.

    Thank you guys.

    Hi,

    I can answer some of your questions, maybe sampath can help you with the last one because I don't have any experince on that.

    1. Actually client app is in src folder but if you want to group other folders related to client app (node_modules, nswag etc..), you can do, it will work probably without a problem but if you face any problem, we can try to help you.

    2. If you add the prepublish script I have provided in above document, you can directly publish your project form visual studio to azure. Just like you do it any other web application.

    I hope @sampath can help you with the last question.

    Hi ismcagdas,

    Can we separate it again after merging ? B'cos my client asked this from me. He likes separated projects (server and client) when project will have more developers.But now I'm the only developer and I would like to have a single solution. Is that possible. Thanks.

    Hi,

    Seperating this merged project can be easy, you can copy same files to a new project and it should work. But, while developing your project in a single solution, you should cosnider this case and try not to do any change which will make this seperation hard in the future.
