how to run the project without grunt files in client and server folders

Just thinking outloud here, but if you skipped past the app hosting parts in Google, then perhaps you need a hosted service such as Heroku or something similar. They handle 90% of the hosting side for you, allowing you to build your app as you like and I believe also to choose who you give access to (double check their options on that though).

Otherwise, if you're looking to run it on a local network as a private app (i.e.: not an online app), then your best bet would be running a web server in a virtual machine somewhere. Bitnami has a few easy configuration options in that regard.

Thanks for the reply. I want to run it locally. Can you please tell me how to do it without grunt and I want to change complete UI.

Ok, if you want to do that, first you need to understand what Grunt really is. It's a build tool, nothing more.. The "running with grunt" idea here is a Grunt task that launches a NodeJS powered mini web server, serving only your local browser. It's final step is to "compile" your app with minified code to be hosted on a permanent (NodeJS? Apache? Nginx?) file server.

Maybe that should be in a wiki page somewhere, but anyways.. The quickest solution for this case would be a NodeJS stack, some might prefer a Nginx stack with Node installed for more flexibility, but that's what Google is for.. There are tons of guides out there that cover exactly what you're asking.
